Parenting the new teen in the age of anxiety : raising happy, healthy humans ages 8 to 24
(Book)

Kids are growing up with nearly unlimited access to social media and everything you can find on the internet. Starting as early as eight years old, children are exposed at information thoughts, and emotions that they are developmentally unprepared to process. Your typical "teen parenting" tactics for thirteen year olds is now years too late. Dr. Duffy, a nationally recognized expert in parenting for nearly twenty five years, offers breakthrough advice for parents raising children who are growing up quickly and , as a result, are dealing with unresolved adolescent issues that can lead to anxiety and depression. Because of the exposure they deal with, kids are emotionally overwhelmed at a young age and are often continuing to search for a sense of self well into their twenties. However, Dr. Duffy also expresses the good that comes with these challenges, such as the sense of justice instilled in teenagers starting at a young age. If you're wondering what your kid is doing up in their room all day, this book is for you.
