Written by a real parent for real parents, “Help Me With My Teenager! A Step-by-Step Guide for Parents that Works" is specifically aimed at helping parents build a better relationship with their teenage children. Right now!
Unlike most “parenting your teen” tomes, this isn’t a book written by some psychologist telling you how to be a parent – you already know how to do that. Instead, this is a book written to help you better understand and relate to your teen.


Author Christina Botto knows the frustration you're feeling form personal experience and because she has worked with hundreds of parents just like you. It seems that no matter how hard you try, you can't escape the endless arguments with and disrespect from your teen.

But Christina has learned how to deal constructively with this age group! In her book, she shares her proven strategies, comprised of more than 14 years of working with parents and their teens. And she writes with a clear purpose – to help parents just like you!

“As a parent of a teenager and a pre-teen, I found 'Help Me With My Teenager!' to be right on target. I like that Botto's focus is two-fold: the well being of the teenager, and the wellbeing of the parent-teen relationship. This guide is easy to read, and it dives right into solutions...Absolute Must Read!" full pdf review

"While reading this book, I felt that the real stories the author shared helped me in realizing I'm not alone and that so many other parents were dealing with the same thing. The book helped me in approaching problems with my daughter in a different way."

About the Book

Written in an easy-to-read manner, “Help Me With My Teenager! A Step-by-Step Guide for Parents that Works” dives right into solutions without making you jump through impossible hoops to get results.
 

·         Understanding why teenagers behave the way they do and what motivates them

·         How to successfully engage teenagers in conversation that will open the lines of communication

·         How to help teens smoothly transition from a child to a young adult

·         How to remain active in a teen's life - without being seen as obtrusive

·         How to set limits and boundaries in a way that teenagers will accept them


 
Being a teenager today is much different than it was just twenty short years ago. What motivated you as a teen may not necessarily motivate your teenage children. That’s why a depth of understanding is essential - once you understand where your teen is coming from and why they do what they do, it becomes much easier to relate to them (and they to you.) 

In addition, you, being the adult, are the one that will need to take the step. There are precious few “how to relate to your parents” books out there (and no teen worth their salt would read them anyway.)
Teenagers have their own world, and their own culture. And it’s very different than the one you remember.

If you're interested in improving life with your teen, "Help Me With My Teenager! A Step-by-Step Guide for Parents that Works" will give you the tools to start creating the relationship you really want.


Here are some of the strategies the book covers in detail…
Do you hear these phrases?
“Nothing…”
“Whatever…”
“You don’t understand…”
“Leave me alone…”
“But they’re my friends…”
“EVERYBODY does it…”
“_____ sucks…”
Would you like them to become a thing of the past? Then you need this book.

It is a VERY practical book that is not bogged down in theory. It has been a great inspiration to me and gives me the courage to face another day with my teen."
