Synopsis

Has your daughter suddenly closed her door — and her heart?

One morning she told you everything. The next, she sat at the breakfast table in a silence you couldn't read. You love her completely, but you feel like a stranger in her world.

You are not alone. And this book is written for you.

Turning Tides is a warm, wise guide for parents of teenage daughters — written not by a distant expert, but by a mother sitting right inside this experience. Prathima Anup takes you inside your daughter's inner world: what she is truly feeling, why she behaves the way she does, and what she needs most from you.

Chapter by chapter, you will understand:

Why her moods, silences and closed doors are not rejection — they are communication

How to stay close as she pulls toward independence

What social media and academic pressure are really doing to her sense of self

How to build a relationship where she brings you the hard things

Why the voice inside her head is borrowed — and how to make it kinder

This book will not give you a formula. It will give you something more valuable: understanding. Because when you truly understand what she is going through, you will know exactly what to do.

Perfect for parents of girls aged 11–18. Read it with a pencil. Come back to it often.
