New Reading Resources We Love!

Head on over to our Resources page!

​Our latest book recommendation is by the parenting experts Dr. William Stixrud and Ned Johnson.  

Perhaps you attended the author talk hosted by Severna Park High School in October 2019 on their first book, The Self-Driven Child.  Their new book is called What Do You Say? How to Talk with Kids to Build Motivation, Stress Tolerance, and a Happy Home. This one is a guide to effectively communicating with teenagers.  

And these two experts certainly know teenagers!

Dr. William Stixrud is a clinical neuropsychologist and an authority on adolescent brain development. Ned Johnson coaches students on how to manage stress while motivating and empowering them to reach their full potential. With a combined 60 years experience collaborating with teens, Stixrud and Johnson have a lot to share. They believe that parents can empower kids to take control of their own lives, and that kids will be happier with this approach. They believe in the powers of meditation!  And they believe that parents can train themselves to be better listeners and more effective communicators. Even when it comes to the thorny topics.
 
Here is a great new YouTube video with the authors! We hope you enjoy.
