Congratulations! Youâ€™re the mother of a teenage daughter! Welcome to the world of door slams, boy craziness, glass-shattering screams, and eye rolls bigger than the earthâ€™s rotation around the sun. The truth is, as you should remember yourself, being a teenage girl is one long emotional roller coaster. And if mom responds in kind, sheâ€™s just adding fuel to the fire and eroding the relationship. More than at any other time in their life, teen girls need their mom to be a stable anchor.In Dial Down the Drama, family therapist and mom Colleen Oâ€™Grady shares what she learned firsthand during her own daughterâ€™s teenage years about how best to calmly de-escalate even the most stressful scenes and parent intentionally even when your teen is pushing you away. She wants every other mom to learn how to:â€¢ Regain perspectiveâ€¢ Break the cycle of conflictâ€¢ Tune into her daughter without drowning in the dramaâ€¢ Foster spontaneous conversationsâ€¢ Replace worrying and overreacting with effective communication and actionâ€¢ And much more!As Colleen has said, you donâ€™t dial down the drama in order to survive the teenage years; you do so because you actually can enjoy them! This empowering guide gives you the tools you need to do just that.
