Résumé du livre
Don't walk away from the chance to help your teen grow up to be a happy, intelligent, independent adult.
If you're the parent of a teen, you may worry whether your child will:
- Avoid trouble and thrive during adolescence
- Prepare for the tough challenges that await beyond high school
- Grow the brainpower to succeed in a demanding career
Thoughts like these can keep you up at night.
Dr. Denny Coates explains in every-day, easy-to-understand language how teens can consciously and deliberately build their brains to establish a solid foundation for critical thinking skills that will last them a lifetime. You'll learn how to stimulate, encourage, support and protect your teen's brain during this crucial period of development.
You'll also learn about:
- The amazing power of the prefrontal cortex (PFC)
- How your child can develop the PFC
- Why this basic development has to happen during the teen years
- How to stimulate your teen to develop thinking skills
- How to help your teen protect the growing PFC
- School courses, extracurricular activities, and games that help grow a smarter brain
Read the book, then give it to your child. Chapters 7, 8, 9 and 10 were written especially for teens and contain insights that can be life-changing.
