The Teen Interpreter: A Guide to the Challenges and Joys of Raising Adolescents Apter Terri
Once children hit adolescence, it seems as if overnight "I love you" becomes "leave me alone," and any question from a parent can be dismissed with one word: "fine." But while they may not show it, teenagers rely on their parents' curiosity, delight, and connection to guide them through this period of exuberant growth as they navigate complex changes to their bodies, their thought processes, their social world, and their self-image.In The Teen Interpreter, psychologist Terri Apter looks into teens' minds--minds that are experiencing powerful new emotions and awareness of the world around them--to show how parents can revitalize their relationship with their children. She illuminates the rapid neurological developments of a teen's brain, along with their new, complex emotions, and offers strategies for disciplining unsafe actions constructively and empathetically.
