Book Synopsis 13 Is the New 18 by : Beth J. Harpaz
Download or read book 13 Is the New 18 written by Beth J. Harpaz and published by Crown. This book was released on 2009-01-27 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “I wonder sometimes if there’s something to the old superstition about the number thirteen. Maybe that superstition was originally created by the mothers in some tribe who noticed that in their children’s thirteenth year, they suddenly became possessed by evil spirits. Because it did seem that whenever Taz was around, things spilled and shattered, calm turned into chaos, and tempers were lost.” So laments the mother of one thirteen-year-old boy, Taz, a teen who, overnight it seemed, went from a small, sweet, loving boy to a hulking, potty-mouthed, Facebook/MySpace–addicted C student who didn’t even bother to hide his scorn for being anywhere in the proximity of his parents. As this startling transformation floors journalist Beth Harpaz and her husband, Elon, Harpaz tries to make sense of a bizarre teenage wilderness of $100 sneakers, clouds of Axe body spray (to hide the scent of pot?!), and cell phone bills so big they require nine-by-twelve envelopes. In the process, she begins chronicling her son’s hilarious, sometimes harrowing, indiscretions, blaming herself (“I am a terrible mother” becomes her steadfast refrain), Googling unfamiliar teenage slang, reading every parenting book she can get her hands on, and querying friends who also have teens. From a derailed family vacation where Taz is more interested in trying to get a cell phone connection than looking at the world’s largest trees (boring!), to a prom where Taz is caught with liquor, to a trip to Australia sans parents in which Taz actually doesn’t get into any trouble and manages to do his own laundry, the events that mark Taz’s newfound and troublesome independence are told with a wry and poignant voice by a woman who’s both wistful for the past and trying her hardest to understand her son’s head-scratching new behavior. In her quest to infiltrate his world by spying on his MySpace page (where he claims he’s twenty-two), Harpaz expands her online monitoring and soon becomes a Facebook addict. She also reflects on her own youth and entry into middle age, and in the process achieves hard-won wisdom. A book for any parent of teens—be they girls or boys—13 Is the New 18 is a delightfully comical foray into today’s increasingly widening generation gap and one mom’s attempt to figure it all out with little guidance and a whole lot of misplaced guilt.

Book Synopsis Anxiety Relief for Teens by : Alexis Ford
Download or read book Anxiety Relief for Teens written by Alexis Ford and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021 with total page 54 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mental health conversations have been gaining momentum on social media in recent years. This is likely because everyone is affected somehow by mental illness, whether it be a personal struggle or a struggle we witness someone close to us fighting. The World Health Organization has reported that one in six teenagers (ages 10 - 19) are affected by mental illness (World Health Organization). However, mental illness among teenagers is seldom detected in time, and thus, a great amount of these cases remain untreated. This is concerning given the fact that suicide rates keep rising each year among teenagers. Teenagehood is a period during which a person goes through a lot of identity crisis. As a teenager, one is in between being a child and becoming an adult. As a result, life's demands on this young mind can prove to be too much for some. For example, it is normal to experience fear once in a while; in fact, it would be abnormal for a person to experience no fear at all. However, for some teenagers, fear is a constant struggle they battle with on a day-to-day basis. As a consequence, a line is drawn between occasional feelings of fear in response to a stimulus and anxiety.If you have been finding that you're feeling a lot of the following symptoms listed by the Mayo Clinic (2018) you may have an anxiety disorder.●Feeling nervous, restless, or tense●Having an increased heart rate●Having a sense of impending danger, panic, or doom●Sweating●Breathing rapidly (hyperventilation)●Feeling weak or tired●Trembling●Having trouble sleeping●Trouble concentrating or thinking about anything other than the present●Having difficulty controlling worry●Experiencing gastrointestinal (GI) problems●Having the urge to avoid things that trigger anxietyThis book details 52 tips you can use to achieve peace of mind. The book does not replace medical advice. Therefore, whatever the case, make sure that you consult your doctor to check if you or your teen have underlying conditions that may be giving you symptoms.
