Looking for Answers about Thomas Nelson Tough Guys and Drama Queens: How Not to Get Blindsided by Your Child's Teen Years, Facilitator's Handbook?

If you've ever lain awake at night wondering what might be around the next corner of your child's adolescence, this study is for you! After more than 38 years of working with more than 2,500 teens, Mark Gregston introduces Tough Guys and Drama Queens--for parents of preteens and teens with time tested, biblical techniques to guide you through these unavoidably challenging years.

Mark helps parents realize that some natural parenting approaches are counterproductive and therefore totally ineffective. He offers tried-and-true wisdom on the vital importance of relationship and forgiveness, and he explains how conflict is actually the precursor to change. Each day your children are bombarded by a highly sexualized culture and overexposed to words and images that can influence them beyond your reach. Your connection to them during these years is critical as is your response to tough issues such as:

• appearance
• performance
• authority & respect
• boundaries
The Tough Guys and Drama Queens is intended for use with its companion DVD and blends Gregston's humor with practical and biblical insights while offering proactive tools to prepare you for the incredible teen years ahead.

This Facilitator's Handbook includes:
• Nine one-hour sessions
• Facilitator Notes and Parent's Guide
• Boundary Establishing Excercises
• Questions for Discussion
• Prompts for engaging your teenager
