"Fourteen (Talks) by (Age) Fourteen will explain the why and how of the fourteen surprising but essential conversations parents should have with their child before he or she enters high school"--
Keeping kids safe-- and prepared for all the times when you can't be the angel on their shoulder-- is about having the right conversations at the right time. There is no better time for this than their tween years, right up to when they enter high school. Icard focuses on big, thorny topics such as friendship, sexuality, impulsivity, and technology, as well as unexpected conversations about creativity, hygiene, money, privilege, and contributing to the family. She outlines a simple, memorable, and family-tested formula for the best approach to these essential talks, and shares tips to help you get over the most common hurdles in talking to tweens. -- adapted from jacket
