"The Parent Compass:" How to Help Your Teens Navigate Their Own Success

"The Parent Compass:" How to Help Your Teens Navigate Their Own Success

Wouldn't it be nice if hospitals gave out "how-to be a parent" books when you have a child?! And then send another when you're approaching the teen years? Well, Cynthia Muchnick and Jenn Curtis wrote a parenting book that's the closest thing to that latter: "The Parent Compass." The education consultants and co-authors offer tips on how to navigate the teen years through empowerment, flexibility and guidance. Muchnick and Curtis, inspired to put pen to paper when "Operation Varsity Blues" hit the press, share why teens are living in this competitive environment to begin with (spoiler: it's parenting patterns!) They also share with Maria how to spot burnout and solutions to combat it in academics and extracurriculars. Finally, they share what success can look like for different kids, families and situations and how parents can be embrace that!
