by David Celio (Author)
This book is a practical guide for parents who are navigating the storms and stresses of raising middle school children in turbulent times. In today's rapidly changing and demanding world, parents are challenged to identify and follow sound ethical and educational principles to produce happy and successful children. This book offers twelve principles which have been field tested by the author and formulated to serve as guidance for parents of middle school children. If parents can put these principles into practice, they will have secured the basic understanding of a psychologically healthy family life. Dr. Celio has provided this basic training to parents for decades and they have contributed to happier family lives. He has not only applied these principles to his patients, he has also applied them to his own family with good results. - Written by an experienced psychologist who has applied the principles he discusses in his own practice. - Has wide applicability to raising children of all ages, but is aimed at "tweens", middle school children who are increasingly being identified as an important group for intervention. - Is clearly and succinctly written, with examples in every chapter, and a concluding chapter with a set of additional middle school crisis-scenarios that parents might encounter. - Applicable to charter schools as well as parochial and private schools--wherever parents want the best for their children. +
