Endless arguments? Communication by grunt? Seismic sulking? Lives ruled by FOMO (fear of missing out)?

Sound like your teenager?

Behavioural expert Charlie Taylor has the answers in this practical handbook which is full of simple, effective techniques for improving your teenager's behaviour.

Charlie Taylor's straight-talking, no-nonsense approach guides you away from knee-jerk parenting towards a more proactive and positive relationship with your teenager. With particular emphasis on the power of praise - the basis of his acclaimed 6 to1 strategy - and planning in advance for behaviour or communication hotspots, every parent can break the miserable pattern of constant confrontation, endless negotiation and repetitive nagging.

With the insights and methods found in Divas and Door Slammers – including a handy Troubleshooting Guide that looks at such issues as under-age drinking, sex, drugs and problems at school – every household with teenagers can quickly transform from havoc to harmony.
