Raising teens does not have to suck. Here are the secrets to bringing joy, connection, and laughter to the relationship, by the co-author of the nationally bestselling book about modern puberty, This Is So Awkward.

“Funny, wise, wildly relatable, and genuinely useful . . . a must-read for anyone raising an adolescent.”—Lisa Damour, Ph.D., author of Untangled and The Emotional Lives of Parents

Conventional wisdom is that teenagers are selfish slobs, obsessed with their phones, driven by raging hormones, and that raising them is a nightmare. But teen whisperer Vanessa Kroll Bennett flips the narrative, arguing that teens can be the funniest, smartest, most caring human beings . . . if we give them the chance.

Calm, optimistic, and entertaining, Bennett offers positive yet realistic guidance for the biggest challenges parents of teens face—from not taking their behavior so personally to managing tech use to pushing back on today’s high-stress culture. Teenhood provides hard-won tenets for confidently stepping into this stage of parenting, including:

• Treat them like jerks, they’ll act like jerks.
• The path to independence is an ultramarathon, not a sprint.
• They’re not ignoring you—you’re just not interesting to them.
• You can’t make them happy, but you can build resilience.

Pairing cutting-edge research about teen development with sanity-saving stories, strategies, and scripts, Teenhood will make the most complex phase of parenting more joyful and less stressful for all.

Kritikerstimmen

“Teenhood is a must read for anyone raising an adolescent. Funny, wise, wildly relatable, and genuinely useful, it helps readers navigate the twists and turns while holding on to the joy, connection, and sheer pleasure of watching our teenagers grow.”—Lisa Damour, Ph.D., author of The Emotional Lives of Parents

“Reading Teenhood feels like sitting across the table from the friend who is funny about the absurdity of it all and then, in the very next breath, wise enough to help you see things with judgment-free clarity. It lowers the temperature on a culture built to keep families anxious and striving and reminds us what these years are actually for.”—Jennifer Breheny Wallace, New York Times bestselling author of Mattering

“Teenhood is the perfect guide to parenting through the complicated, wonderful, happy, sad, silly, and hard teenage years. I laughed and also cried. Combining the latest research with real experience, it is a book to come back to in the hardest moments, for both advice and reassurance.”—Emily Oster, New York Times bestselling author of The Family Firm

“Yes, adolescence is a challenging time for many and, yes, there will be days when you embody the exploding-head emoji, but five minutes into Teenhood—a book filled with warmth and void of judgment—Vanessa Kroll Bennett will have you flipping your script, too.”—Cara Natterson, MD, bestselling co-author of This Is So Awkward

“Parenting teenagers can feel like one long exercise in worry about friends, college, and the future. With humor, wisdom, and just plain honesty, this book shows us how to step off the hamster wheel, give our kids room to become themselves, and rediscover the joy of raising teenagers.”—Jeffrey Selingo, New York Times bestselling author of Dream School
