running the rapids :: book club

Have a teen?  Entering teen-dom?  Want to just plain ol’ be prepared for this unpredictably awesome time with your kids?  Then I suggest you join along in our current MODsquad Book Club pick … Running the Rapids: Guiding Teenagers Through the Turbulent Waters of Adolescence, by Dr. Kevin Leman.

Today I’m discussing:


R-1 Know The River
Since the adolescent years are such an up-and-down ride, it helps to grasp the “big picture” of the river.  When do children become teenagers?  What particular complexities and issues do they face in today’s world?  Why do some kids choose to respond positively and some negatively?  Is it still possible to influence kids who are no longer under our control?

Ready?  Let’s go!  Hop on over and read all about it!
