Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a terrific book. Janet McHenry knows from what she writes and uses her real life examples of raising her own teens and teaching teenagers in her writing. From the first pages, where she describes that awful feeling when you first realize your child is not behaving the way you thought he was, to the real, concrete, useful suggestions on how to handle all kinds of situations (drugs, dating, lying, dress, etc.) this book hits the mark. Not to be trite, but I laughed, I cried...and I prayed. The suggestions for prayer are real, and from the gut. It is a book you can buy by the dozen and hand them out to all your friends and they will be enternally grateful. It is that good, and that useful. Here is the answer to "but what can you do?" about your children. Thank you, Janet.

Give control back to God and get back to what you enjoy most–loving your teen. Parenting teenagers isn't easy. No matter how much we love our kids and want to protect them, we cannot control them or their circumstances. But God is in control, and– particularly when we trust him–he can take care of our kids far better than we ever could. So what else can we do? We can pray. In fact, prayer should be our first response–because prayer is the most powerful tool at a parent's disposal. That is what this book is about: releasing our teens to God's control, learning to pray specifically and with confidence for their every need, and recovering the sense of humor that will help us face the situations that now cause us so much stress. This book includes:• lighthearted stories designed to help take the edge off of parenting your teenager• valuable insights on more than twenty areas of conflict you are likely to experience with your teen–from language, grades, and clothing to drugs, drinking, and smoking• specific prayer strategies to help you make a difference in your teen's life• perspectives on the "hot" issues, from real teens• what the Bible has to say on each subject• tips from parenting experts• specific prayers to get you started• discussion starters to help open up dialogue with your teenWhether parents have never prayed for their teens, have prayed sporadically, or have prayed every day, now is the time to pray even more and in whole new ways–and Prayer Changes Teens will show them how.
