Raising Healthy Teenagers: Equipping Your Child to Navigate the Pitfalls and Dangers of Teen Life Paperback - 2023

by Thomas Kersting


From the publisher

Our kids are experiencing an unprecedented sense of isolation, interacting virtually in a world that seems ever more fearful with each news cycle. They absorb and internalize the stress and anxiety they see on their parents' faces and on the phone, laptop, tablet, and TV screens that are ever before their eyes. Not surprisingly, their mental and physical health are suffering. As parents, we want to know how we can help.

Practical and encouraging, Raising Healthy Teenagers helps you understand the mental, physical, and social toll the past couple years have taken on your kids. Then it offers proven strategies to help your teen get back onto a healthy path by
- reducing screen time and increasing green time
- learning how to be a social being again
- developing strategies to deal with disruptions in schooling
- reclaiming a structured day
- breaking the cycle of anxiety and depression
- and much more

From the rear cover

Teens today face unique challenges so parents need a better guidebook.
This is that book.

It's a time-honored tradition for parents to point out differences in upbringing to their kids with sentences that start with, "In my day . . ." Usually, they're a bit amusing. But lately, hasn't it felt like there is a greater--and more serious--disconnect than ever before between the world we grew up in and the one our kids are growing up in?

Our kids are experiencing unprecedented isolation, stress, and anxiety fed by a fear-filled twenty-four-hour news cycle and exacerbated by too much time spent alone on screens. Not surprisingly, their mental and physical health are suffering. The question is, How do we help our teens when we never had to navigate the same kinds of challenges?

Practical and encouraging, Raising Healthy Teenagers helps you understand the mental, physical, and social toll the past few years have taken on your preteens and teens. Then it offers proven strategies to help your kids get back onto a healthy path.

Your teens need you now more than ever. Let this book show you how to be there for them, guide them, and set them up for lasting success.
