Loving Your Teenage Daughter (Whether She Likes It or Not): The Complete Insider's Guide for Moms
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
As hormones kick in and social pressures increase, daughters are often ambivalent about their relationships with their mothers: they demand more independence one minute while needing nurturing the next. Mothers, unsure how to respond, may find themselves reacting with an array of negative emotions: anger, defensiveness, depression. Psychologist and mother Debra Whiting Alexander offers real-world solutions to the age-old problem of maintaining the delicate balance of this relationship. Drawing on detailed interviews, she offers specific strategies for handling conflicts and power struggles, bolstering a daughter's self-esteem, and coping with problems. Alexander uses sample dialogues, exercises, and activities to take the terror out of talking about such loaded topics as dating, sexuality, peer pressure, and drugs and alcohol.
