These are just some words used to describe the reality of dating after divorce. Like all major life changes, going through a divorce can be a very stressful time. No matter how long you were married, the act of parting from the person in life you may have been closest to can be jarring, challenging, and heartbreaking. The emotional exhaustion, the fear of failure, and that nagging feeling that maybe you're just meant to be alone can all make dating seem like a chore or something you don't want to do.

Superman was sent away from his dying planet with no one to guide him as he grew up. Orphaned Catwoman was forced to steal food to survive on the streets of Gotham. What makes these superheroes super is their determination to not be defined by helplessness.

We have a tendency today to over-parent, micromanage, and underappreciate our adolescents. Dr. John Duffy's The Available Parent is a revolutionary approach to taking care of teens and tweens. The available parent of a teenager is open to discussion, offering advice and solutions but not insisting on them. He allows his child to make some mistakes, setting limits, primarily where health and safety are concerned. He never lectures - he is available but not controlling. He is neither cruel nor dismissive, ever....

Essential!
I still remember the time when i was in my teens and my friend's parents used to struggle to have an open ended conversation with their children. It gets really challenging to maintain a healthy bond with teen children and communication easily with them. I am amazed at the strategies author has shared for the parents to practice in order to start a conversation with their children. The audio book has great exercises, ideas and scenarios to work on. Really appreciate author's concern!

Tools for Parenting Teenagers!
I was very close to my son until he became a TEENAGER! Since then, it has been a headache; I could never say the right things. I stumbled upon this book and thought to give it a try. This audiobook has been enlightening. Sure, I knew some things already, but I’ve also learned new techniques to approach my son as he changes.
We are still not how we were, but I’m seeing significant progress after following the guide of this book. I will keep at it to see if our relationship can be fully restored.

Seriously helpful
I never thought I'd be one of those parents that struggles to maintain open communication with their kids but here I am. This book was so unique and helpful as it gave me launching points to get some kind of talking started so I could then practice just listening to my kids and really hearing them.

Excellent Book
Today's teens may find it challenging to comprehend or cope with all that is happening because life is much more complicated, and their bodies and minds are developing swiftly.
Additionally, they could find it challenging to discuss some of the problems they encounter, such as bullying, peer pressure, physical changes, low self-esteem, and a host of other issues.
Every thirteen-year-old should receive this book to understand better and navigate their constantly changing surroundings. It can also be helpful for parents to understand the issues their teen is facing in today's society and potentially start a conversation with them.
I'm getting this for my teenage grandson and telling him to read it all through.

A must listen for any parent
Everyone tells you how difficult it’s going to be to talk to your teenager - well, they were right!
This audiobook has given me some incredible ideas on how to get my 16 year old to open up and tell me what’s going on in their life. You can only ask “how was your day” so many times.
I can’t wait to implement some of the ideas from this book. I want to be part of my child’s life again!
