How do other parents do it? How do they set boundaries with their teens? How do others solve problems? Can anybody communicate with teenagers? Most important, how do other parents keep faith at the center of their relationship with their teens and be prepared for circumstances before they occur? FAITHfully Parenting Teens offers godly advice for the challenges parents are facing today or will soon encounter. Whether the topic is friendship, school violence, drinking, driving, or dating, this book offers information to help parents anticipate their teen's challenges, needs, and changes. Readers have the opportunity to work through these 21 common issues-before they happen-with case studies, process information, and questions that can be completed individually, with a spouse, or as part of a group. Each chapter encourages readers to examine their own priorities and values, then turn to the perfect Parent, our heavenly Father, for guidance. Examples of situations and discussion starters are included to help you or your parent's group think through the opportunities to faithfully invest in your teenager.
