One minute, they come to you for everything... the next, they seem to have closed off completely. Here's your guide to keeping those all-important conversations flowing throughout the teen years.

Is every question you ask suddenly greeted with a grunt or a complete evasion of the question?

Are you banished from your child’s room, left wondering what secrets are hidden in there with the dirty plates and the laundry you’ve been begging for all week?

Sounds like you have a teenager on your hands!

Adolescence is one of the most difficult periods of life, yet at the time we want to help them the most, it seems our kids want to shut us out at every opportunity.

As your child approaches puberty, you’re aware of the growing need to have ‘the talk’... but how do you do so in a way that won’t embarrass them and cause them to close down?

On top of that, you’re aware that they need to learn about responsibilities, but it seems like even the simplest of requests are falling on deaf ears. They’ll be heading off to college soon… Are they going to be ready?

Your teen needs boundaries that allow them to grow in a safe and nurturing environment while increasing their independence.

They need accurate information about puberty, sex, and sexuality.

And finally, all of those topics are collected together in a single one-stop guide to parenting a teenager.

In this comprehensive resource, you’ll discover:

• The reason for your teen’s sudden need for space and privacy (don’t worry – it’s completely normal)
• How to help an untalkative teen navigate their emotions when they’re unable to tell you what they are
