And Then I Had Teenagers

Susan Yates, best-selling author of "And Then I Had Kids" and "How to Like the Ones You Love", now offers encouragement and guidance to parents of teens and preteens. Drawing from her experiences raising five teenagers, she offers parents a unique blend of stories, compassion, and advice. Yates empathizes with parents whose children struggle with communication, peer pressure, and faith - every parent of a teen! - while also considering teenagers' perspectives and needs. Readers who enjoyed "And Then I Had Kids" will be eager for this sequel as they prepare for the teen years. With a similar style, it demonstrates how Christian values work within the family and the home. Discussion questions for each chapter make it a perfect resource for small groups, Sunday school, or neighborhood outreach. By encouraging readers to "articulate the challenges and then choose to focus on the blessings," "And Then I Had Teenagers" restores hope during one of the craziest seasons of life.
