SynopsisThe two worst times in a woman's life is when she is 13 and when her daughter is 13, or so goes a popular maxim in psychology circles., Welcome to the "bewilderness" years! It's that special time when everything your teenage daughter says or does has you tearing your hair out in frustration. In this sanity-saving book for mothers of moody, hormone-infused, self-absorbed adolescent daughters, a humor writer and mother of a teen herself provides practical wisdom and plenty of battle-tested advice from women who've been there. Complete with tips and strategies from a noted child psychologist, it gives you the lowdown on: Being Uncool (or, Being Yourself). Avoid the trappings of the Clueless Mom and the Best Bud Mom, and find the positive, true path of the Uncool Mom. Clothes. Clever ways to sidestep the shopping mall battles -- and get her to buy the things you like. Behavior. Coping with flippancy, moodiness, and hissy fits -- don't let her push your buttons so that you end up acting worse than she does. Power Struggles. Learn how to weather the inevitable blowups -- when she wants to test her limits and you want to hold the line. Manipulation. From the Guilt Trip to the Twist Around, a list of the Dirty Dozen techniques teens like to use against their parents. Teen Culture. From music, to icky friends, to sex and drugs -- how to keep communication going so your daughter makes a safe and healthy transition from adolescence to adulthood. Book jacket.
