If you're the parent of a "smart but scattered" teen, trying to help him or her grow into a self-sufficient, responsible adult may feel like a never-ending battle. Now you have an alternative to micromanaging, cajoling, or ineffective punishments. This positive guide provides a science-based program for promoting teens' independence by building their executive skills - the fundamental brain-based abilities needed to get organized, stay focused, and control impulses and emotions.
Executive skills experts Drs. Richard Guare and Peg Dawson are joined by Colin Guare, a young adult who has successfully faced these issues himself. Learn step-by-step strategies to help your teen live up to his or her potential now and in the future - while making your relationship stronger.

What made the experience of listening to Smart but Scattered Teens the most enjoyable?
The information was fantastic.What didn’t you like about Abby Craden’s performance?
Her vocal growl is very irritating it shows a laziness in her presentation it is there in the text throughout and especially when she is reading quotes which might not have been so bad. But the consistancy of the growl was just bothersome. She is a fine reader if she could just loose the growl.Any additional comments?
The information and PDFs for this book are tremendously helpful. I highly recommend this book for all parents who see their child starting to have trouble in Junior High.Vocal Growl

While our son is a brilliant writer, actor, and person at the age of 13, he is also "scattered". Items forgotten at school, at home, what takes other kids 20 minutes may take our son 2 class periods. He is so brilliant to talk to that a fellow actor, who happens to be the husband of a local school principal and played our son's dad in "A Christmas Story", tried to "draft" our son to come to their school and was pretty agitated when we turned down the offer. He is so impressive, right up until it takes him all weekend to complete homework.
That is where this book comes in. Tips to help your child move faster, remember items, etc. The book covers a lot of issues, so not all will apply to your kid, but it was applicable enough to ours that I would recommend it.
Good source material for raising kids.

The speaker is a bit slow and that can get annoying. I listened the whole book on 1.25x.
Other than that, awesome read!
Preferred reading for anyone dealing with teens
