Excerpt from Chapter 1. Why is She So Difficult to Deal With? Understanding and Communicating With Adolescent Girls
WHAT CAN I SAY WHEN MY ADOLESCENT DAUGHTER HAS EXPERIENCED FAILURE AND IS UPSET? Savannah H.
Parents hurt when their kids hurt. A failure is not only painful for your daughter, but is painful for you, too. This is one of those time when you wish you could make it all better, but you may not be able to. You can't make the pain disappear, but you can help your daughter to understand that failure is a normal, acceptable, and often unavoidable, experience throughout life.
