Summary of Christine Carter, Ph.D.'s The New Adolescence
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book.
Sample Book Insights:
#1 The central tenet of adolescence is a drive for autonomy, which can be hard for parents to deal with. However, parenting teenagers is much easier than parenting little kids, as they can put on their own shoes and make their own lunches.
#2 When we are happy, we are less likely to get pulled into teenage moodiness, and when they are stressed or in crisis, we are more likely to be helpful to them.
#3 Self-care is not selfish. It is the opposite of that. It is the act of taking time for yourself, to relax, and to improve your relationships with others. It is not the time to become more anxious and distant from your kids.
#4 We need to take care of ourselves more than ever when our kids are teenagers because they can sniff out hypocrisy a mile away. Teens can develop a good nose for social injustice, and they will not be impressed by anything that smells of unfairness or pretense.
