A Survival Guide to Parenting Teens Talking to Your Kids Abo
Advance Praise for A Survival Guide to Parenting Teens
“Joani is down-to-earth, witty, and wise—qualities that you will find in abundance throughout her wonderful book. A Survival Guide to Parenting Teens reads like a conversation with a good friend who is right there when your teen is struggling with all the usual and unusual things that parents face on a regular basis.”
—Dan Kiley, Director of Community and Cultural Program, The Fessenden School
“With honesty, authenticity, and authority, Joani portrays the full landscape of teenage emotion, angst, conflicts, and challenges that confronts teens and their parents. Through insight, humor, real-life examples, and action scripts, Joani turns conflict into conversation, reproach into respect, and hassle into harmony. As the parents of three boys, now grown men, we only wish we could have been guided by this superb book.”
—Marlene Linkow, Teacher, and Peter Linkow, President Emeritus, Work-Family Directions, Inc.
“Refreshingly honest and practical, Joani Geltman gets the inherent conflict in families as teenagers assert their independence. She effectively uses humor to defuse the loaded parent/teenage relationship. Great book full of practical strategies.”
—Mary E. Dolbear, Middle School Director, Buckingham Browne & Nichols School
“Every spring we invite Joani back to Brookline to speak to our incoming 9th grade parents, preparing them for their teen's transition to high school. How wonderful that all parents can now have the “Joani advantage” with this new book.”
—Mary Minott, LICSW, Social Worker, Brookline High School
“We have had Joani speak at our 9th grade parent assembly for years. She talks with refreshing honesty to parents about the inner life of teens and the all-too-real fears of parents. A Survival Guide to Parenting Teens is direct, funny, and insightful. I rely on Joani's words a great deal both at school and at home with my own kids.”
—Paul DiDomenico, Assistant Principal, Algonquin Regional High School
“What a terrific resource for parents of teenagers! Joani Geltman brings her extensive experience right down to practical solutions to everyday problems. Her vast understanding of the angst of adolescents will promote greater understanding and empathy for this challenging stage of life.”
—Caroline MacNichol, Director of the Middle School, Dana Hall School
“For many years, Joani has been our beloved village maven on teenage-hood; now she can be your maven too through this book. Joani's unique blend of direct, no-holds-barred news from the front line, coupled with her thoughtful and wise strategies for successful parent/teen dynamics, makes A
Survival Guide to Parenting Teens an essential tool in any parent's toolbox.”
—Kathleen Maguire, Community Engagement Manager, In Control Crash Prevention
“Joani speaks the language of today's teens. She is uniquely able to help parents decipher their behaviors that both mystify us and make us crazy. Her entertaining delivery is half the fun. She helps us laugh at our insecurities and reassures us that all will be well at the end.”
—Nancy Doyle and Jennifer Sage, President and Vice President, Thayer Academy Parents
Association
“Joani Geltman has a gift for capturing the complexities of raising teenagers in our fast-paced culture and conveying practical and sensible advice. A Survival Guide to Parenting Teens has parents at turns laughing hysterically at familiar situations and reading hungrily for the solutions.”
—Michael Daly, Director, Resiliency For Life
