Are You Equipped to Love Your Teenage Effectively?
Never before has the task of parenting teenagers been more perplexing. Despite the peer pressure that teenagers face, it is still parents who influence teens the most. And the door to that influence is love. Love is the most functional building block of parent-teen relationships. According to Dr. Gary Chapman parents must learn to express their love in a language that makes sense to their teenager. Some teens long for tender words; others desire a gentle touch, a thoughtful gift, a kind deed or quality time spent together. Find out which one of these love languages you child speaks:
Quality Time
Words of Affirmation
Gifts
Acts of Service
Physical Touch
Through true stories from the counseling office of Gary Chapman, you will discover how the principles of the five love languages can really work in the lives of your teens and family.

It is a good book to realise that we each have different ways of receiving love and that my teenager is different than I am. To think through about the five ways of love: time (attention), gifts, hugs (physical), appreciation (praise), action (doing things for them) has first been good to realise: what do I like and what does my child prefer. This book has helped me to recognise my daughter needs the tickling on the back before bedtime when I am tired. Touch is one of her main love language through which she recharges her battery.

It is amazing this type of stuff is not general knowledge, that how we connect with each other is not shared more often, it would save so many arguements and misunderstandings. I highly recommend anyone working or living with teens to read this one. The other books for children and marriages are essential too!

I found this book so helpful in understanding the differing needs of my children. The book outlines the five languages of love, which are - Words of affirmation, Quality time, Touch, Gifts and Acts of service. Looking at my daughter through the light of this book I have realised that touch and words of affirmation are the types of love which she appreciates most. For my son it's acts of service that he values most. It also made me think about my husband and how he likes specific acts of service like making him a cup of tea. The types of love that they value most fill them up most, which makes sense.
