The readiness is all.

— William Shakespeare, Hamlet

 

Teens need love, self-control, values, restraint, and a sense of responsibility for their lives. But they do not come by this without the hard work of their parents.

This section of the book will give you the tools you need to create, establish, and follow through with boundaries and limits that can mean great progress toward maturity for your teen. No matter what the issue, from school problems to bad attitudes, and no matter the severity, from minor to critical, these keys can help you think effectively about healthy boundaries and then utilize them.
