I love Maggie's style. Quite simply, when she talks, we should listen.' Hamish Blake<br/><br/>'A masterpiece ... this book is the answer we've been waiting for.' Dr Vanessa Lapointe<br/><br/>Australia's favourite parenting expert on how to understand and help our teens so they can thrive.<br/><br/>Adolescence has always been a time of huge transformation, but today's teens deal with challenges that parents may never have imagined.<br/><br/>An increasingly digital world filled with social media, gaming and harmful content, along with changing cultural norms, has intensified the pressure to excel and 'fit in' - leading to heightened levels of stress, anxiety and depression.<br/><br/>Maggie Dent, Australia's queen of common-sense parenting, believes that teens can handle these pressures with resilience and strength when they are supported by stable, loving connections with family, teachers and other caring adults.<br/><br/>Drawing on up-to-date research, a survey of modern teens and her own experiences as a teacher, counsellor and mother, and her memories of being a teen, Maggie provides clear and compassionate 'what to do' advice for some of the most difficult, sensitive topics - such as technology use, sex, drugs and alcohol, dropped school grades, mental health and identity - and shows us how we can provide a safe and supportive environment for all our teens.<br/><br/>Help Me Help My Teen is a reassuring, practical guide for parents to help teenagers navigate adolescence and grow into confident, capable adults.<br/>
