About this audiobook
As God allows us to understand the mystery and marvel of brain science, we have the exciting opportunity to reexamine our assumptions about human behavior. Perhaps nowhere does this impact our lives more profoundly than when we think about raising children--especially teenagers. Where parents often see a sweet boy or girl who has morphed into an incomprehensible bundle of hormones and angst, what we really ought to be seeing is an amazing young adult whose brain is under heavy construction. And changing the way we see our teens will revolutionize our relationships with them. Organized by what we hear teens say--things like I'm bored, You just don't understand, Why are you freaking out?, I hate my life!, or Hold on . . . I just have to send this--this book helps parents develop compassion for their teens and discernment in parenting them as their brains are progressively remodeled. Rather than seeing the teen years as a time to simply hold on for dear life, Dr. Jeramy and Jerusha Clark show that they can be an amazing season of cultivating creativity, self-awareness, and passion for the things that really matter.

- Rating: 1 out of 5 stars1/5Me am first review… what am I doing with my life it 3 am and I’m writing a review on a random book
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I chose this book because of the title and since I work with teenagers on a daily basis. I had hoped that it would give my some insight in how to deal with them especially on days when things didn't seem to be going as it usually did. This book was helpful it how it gave insight into how and why they think and how to deal with some of the situations that occur over time. I would recommend this book to anyone who has, will have, or works with teens. I received a copy of this book from the publisher to read and review.
