Make Your Bed!

I recommend this audio book to anyone looking to provide parenting to an Alpha or about to be teen as it’s tough!
It’s reassuring that the author writes with relevant professional experience as a secondary school teacher and a psychology degree. She’s also looking to promote positive parenting experiences for kids given her own neglectful childhood experiences.
Key take away for me would be not feeling guilty for asking for help around the home— essential life skills.

Super Comprehensive

This was an amazingly comprehensive treatment of modern teen live, challenges and joys alike. So many favorite sections: housework as foundation, single tasking better than multi-tasking, help teen to own solution, courtesy is never out of fashion, $$ matters, birth order, risky behavior often involves alcohol, sex and/or drugs. Great advice and comfort with a path forward for parents. Thanks for a great listen!!

Learn how to parent from a place of respect

In this book, I've learnt different types of parenting - jellyfish, ostrich, etc - which now that I think about it, are not new. Essentially, what I got is the language for them. I've learnt how respecting your children is the foundation for parenting confident, successful and socially aware children. I got to see the kind of help Gen Alpha needs from us and I am excited to see how this will change my parenting.

Valuable information

Nowadays, teenagers are experiencing enormous emotional pressure, especially if they don’t have the support of their parents and good guidance. Sometimes all it takes is to listen to them without judging them. This audiobook offers helpful advice to deal with your teens in an efficient and practical way. Mostly when you see teens misbehaving is because they are seeking attention or feel misunderstood. As a parent, you must listen to your children, with an open heart and no judgment. This book offers valuable information that every parent should consider listening to in order to improve the relationship with their kids, especially if they are teens. The audio for this book was clear and easy to understand. This was great listening.

Packed with great tips and advice

I am blown away by how informative and helpful this book was. Evelyne Gilles, without a doubt, provides an amazing overview of everything you need to know about parenting a teen when it comes to life skills, social intelligence, and more.

You can tell that the book was clearly well-researched, as it is packed with great tips and advice for helping your child grow up into successful adults. I especially appreciated the distinction Evelyne Gilles made about letting your child know about mature topics through small conversations rather than having "the talk" in one setting. I know I would probably avoid having "the talk" with my son at all costs even though I know I should, but I would just build it up way too much in my head. But after hearing the author's perspective, I realize that consistent small conversations are a much better way to handle those types of conversation.

Lastly, I have to give a shoutout to the narrator of the audiobook who did an amazing job performing the book. Their voice was enjoyable to listen to and helped me stay engaged throughout the entire book. Overall, I cannot recommend this audiobook enough to any parent of a teenager or parent looking to prepare for the teenage years. It is incredibly informative, well-researched, and full of great tips and advice that will help you and your teen navigate this important time in their life.
