Let’s talk about bringing the show to you and your community!
Parents of teenagers need new role models. When our cubs are young, Mama Bear is a fine example: strong, smart, sassy, sure of herself. But she is a dangerous role model when our kids turn into adolescents. When puberty hits and life turns into a three-ring circus, Mama Bear hibernates. Goes to sleep on the job. Parents do the same: we tend to check out (because teenagers are awful and we're exhausted), leaving our kids vulnerable on their rocky journey toward adulthood.
From a high school teacher (and parent) who has seen it all, here is some frank, funny, practical advice for staying vigilant during these topsy-turvy years. Parents who know, protect and honor their teenagers can find balance for the whole family. New role models--the peregrine falcon (watch them), the ninja (disarm them), the personal trainer (work them), the mentor (guide them) and many more--can help!

It’s easy to feel like a giant parenting failure most of the time. When our lovely children turn into malcontents, things tend to come apart at the seams: families, marriages, healthy self-identities. If you find yourself engaging in elaborate fantasies— like running away to join the circus, a convent, or a magical place where there is no laundry on the floor and no emails about missing homework—you are not alone. Here is a sassy little book to help you gain a fresh (and funny!) perspective on the typical but terrible ways your children are likely to terrorize you for a few years. Have hope! It’s painful and it feels personal, but it is not permanent. It really is just a phase.
