The Secret to Loving Teenagers
May 27th, 2010 by admin
I recently read about a book called “The 5 love languages of Teenagers” by Gary Chapman who talks about how important parental love is for a teenager’s emotional, intellectual, social and spiritual development. He makes a point that all teenagers are different and they all respond differently to various ways that parents communicate love. In Chapman’s book he explains the five languages of love; words of affirmation, physical touch, quality time, acts of service and gifts. He also offers advice on how to break down destructive patterns and forge constructive paths. parents will learn that even though teens want independence, they need responsibility. This looks a like a great resource for how to better communicate with your teen.
