Parenting Resources:

1.) Book- Get Out of My Life, but First Could You Drive Me and Cheryl to the Mall?: A Parent's Guide to the New Teenager by Anthony E. Wolf

Synopsis
 When Anthony E. Wolf's witty and compassionate guide to raising adolescents was first published, its amusing title and fresh approach won it widespread admiration. Beleaguered parents breathed sighs of relief and gratitude. Now Dr. Wolf has revised and updated his bestseller to tackle the changes of the past decade. He points out that while the basic issues of adolescence and the relationships between parents and their children remain much the same, today's teenagers navigate a faster, less clearly anchored world. Wolf's revisions include a new chapter on the Internet, a significantly modified section on drugs and drinking, and an added piece on gay teenagers. Although the rocky and ever-changing terrain of contemporary adolescence may bewilder parents, Get Out of My Life gives them a great road map.

2.) Book- Reclaiming Our Prodigal Sons and Daughters by Larry K. Brendtro, Scott Larson 

Synopsis                                                                                                                                                                         Offers a penetrating portrayal of the rootlessness of many of today's youth and a powerful, practical plan for reaching them. Timeless yet contemporary, this book was designed so that it will not be dated but might become a classic equally valid decades from now.
