We hope that By Parents-For Parents is a useful resource for anyone trying to raise a teenager in these troubled times. Because this is a resource by you, and for you, contributions and suggestions are always welcomed and encouraged. Just email us at: suggestions@byparents-forparents.com.
The goal of By Parents-For Parents is to share information on parenting teens. Parents struggling with teens whose problem behavior is out of control can touch base with those who have weathered the storms of adolescence. Articles both by parents of teens in the midst of this struggle and those who have successfully guided their adolescent children through these formative years are intended to both inform and transform. Self-tests allow you to measure in an objective fashion the effectiveness of your parenting techniques. The discussion area is an open forum for parents of teens who want to share both their struggles and their successes with one another. Information on programs for troubled teens is also available.
Check out the By Parents For Parents Blog. Our Parenting Blog is updated regularly with news and information for parents of teens.
