New York Times best-selling author, internationally known clinical psychologist, and lecturer Wendy Mogel results with a revelatory new reserve on parenting young adults. Mogel's sage advice on parenting small children has struck a chord with thousands of viewers and made her one of today's most trusted parenting government bodies. Now, in a longawaited followup, Mogel addresses the question she hears most frequently: how to proceed when those children become young adults, their sense of freedom and entitlement grows, the pressure to contend and do well skyrockets, and communication becomes fraught with road blocks. With heat, wit, and her signature combo of Jewish teachings and emotional research, Mogel helps parents ably get around the often harsh journey through the teenage years and guide children to become confident, resilient adults. By enjoying the aggravating and worrisome elements of adolescence as "blessings," Mogel reveals that they are, in truth, necessary steps in emotional growth and character development to be attained with trust, detachment, and a sense of humor alternatively than overinvolvement and anxiety. Mogel offers parents the various tools to do so and offers reassuring religious and ethical advice on why impact works more effectively than control, teenage narcissism, living graciously with rudeness, the worthiness of regular work, why risk is essential prep for the post-high university years, when to part of and when to step back, and a sanctified approach to sex and substances. An important and inspiring reserve that will fortify parents through the teenage years, The Blessing of your B Minus is itself a blessing.
