Description:Eight years ago, Dr. John Duffy wrote the ultimate guide for parenting teenagers. In the number one best-selling "The Available Parent," he urged parents to be less authoritarian, and more "available" to their kids. That is, he encouraged them to parent with less fear, judgment and ego clouding their mission of raising competent, resilient teenagers. The landscape of the lives of teenagers, and in fact all of childhood and young adulthood, has changed so wildly since that time, and most people do not see it, or do not seem to entirely get it. This book, a new guide for parents, needed to be written. Because this is a hidden phenomenon, the need for this book is URGENT. Parents are not aware that this shift is happening. In just the past few years, children have had to mature into teen-like thought at earlier and earlier ages. Because of the onslaught of social media and other data available to younger and younger children, we can no longer control the narrative of what information, good or bad, our children are exposed to. So, children as young as eight-years-old are prematurely self-conscious, over-stressed, and overwhelmed. They are developmentally unprepared for so much of the flood of information, thought and emotion they face, and this drives unprecedented anxiety, depression, and even hopelessness in our kids. So, in many ways, saving "teen parenting" for thirteen is now several years too late. All of this stretches the teenager years well beyond nineteen on the back end as well. The formerly predictable arc toward independence, in life and in thought, by twenty-years-old has been a useful guidepost in the past. But the very circumstances that hasten adolescence in the early years also tend to present a lag in the later years. Because they are emotionally overwhelmed early, many young people are still sorting through their sense of self well into their twenties today. In his practice, Dr. Duffy see more and more young people from 18-24 who are struggling with self-regulation issues, stunned by their lack of resilience and spending months, even years, re-grouping. What often looks like a failure to launch is actually the ongoing resolution of adolescent issues. That is to say, the parenting challenges continue for quite some time after nineteen, and it is critical that parents are aware. Much of the shift being described involves an increase in psychological suffering among our young people. Dr. Duffy work with these children many hours a day. The new patterns are not vague. The shift is abundantly clear. And the fallout is overwhelming at best, but devastating in the extreme. Let's review some of the grim -Children report strikingly more stress now than ever before. -Poor self-esteem, and a higher degree of self-loathing, is reported by children now more than ever before. -Body image issues are far more prevalent now than ever before, and at shockingly early ages. -Suicide rates are skyrocketing among young people. This is an alarming, rapidly increasing trend. -We have seen a precipitous rise in school shootings, and other mass shootings, by young people. So, the urgency for this book, the need to recognize and acknowledge this shift, lies in the fact that we are losing young people in record numbers, either literally or figuratively. Consider all the talent and joy and contribution lost when just one teen checks out mentally and/or emotionally, or worse takes her own life. In aggregate, it is possible that we are heading in a direction in which we lose the gifts of countless young people. And, without a doubt, we will all be worse for the loss. The young people who are vulnerable, who struggle to find value in themselves, and feel their feelings so strongly, are the very people we need most right now. They don't recognize their value, but in reality it knows no bounds. We have to save them, for their sake and for our own. And it is critical to note the good that comes with the challenges here. It is often said that teenagers today are soft, entitled and self-absorbed. This could not be further from the truth. They are kind and they are thoughtful and they are worldly. We are unwittingly raising wonderful people who have a thoughtful, compassionate worldview. For parents, the key is understanding. So that when your kid is overwhelmed, and your kid is going to feel overwhelmed; when you kid is exposed to too much, and your kid will be exposed to too much; they I have Mom and/or Dad right here with me, and they are my constant.
