A digital book distributed by the MadTeen organization (http://www.madteen.org) eliminates expensive costs in therapy for angry out-of-control
teenagers while now allowing more parents to afford clinical attention and therapy for their children.
Titled My Out-Of-Control Teen ($28), this book has been written by Mark Hutten, who has a Master'ss Degree in Counseling Psychology and has worked in the addictions field for over twelve
years. Mr. Hutten'ss clients are youth (ages 14-18) who are classified as serious habitual offenders.
The problem is that most parents, many whom are single parents, don's8217;t have eighteen to thirty hours to spend in counseling with their child, assuming the child would even come to
counseling, says Mr. Hutten.
This is why I developed this program for working parents who are struggling with their teenagers.
Counseling sessions can also be expensive, ranging from $25 to $150 per hour. And, parenting classes can take up to six months (or longer) to complete. This equates to approximately
$1200, in addition to time and gas costs in getting to the sessions.
What parents need is a set of cut-to-the-chase parenting strategies that work immediately 's8211; not months or years from now, says Hutten.
The book presents fifty proven successful (non violent) techniques to use with intense, strong-willed, and out of control teens. Subjects include learning to:
* Stop arguments before they start
* Maintain peace-of-mind in the midst of chaos
* Get your child to actually do chores
* Prevent power struggles
* Avoid 'scaving in's to kids's demands
* Take charge of your house again
The digital book also provides audio excerpts of the complete parenting seminar that Mr. Hutten conducts, full access to his website resources, and ongoing direct contact with him via
email.
