Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a wake-up call for parents and the society to realise that our teenagers are losing the ability to decide what is good or bad for them. Recent disturbing incidents clearly show that teenagers do not repent for their activities. They live in a virtual world of fantasy and expectations. The author’s experience as the mother of a teenager and interaction with her friends helped her realise that teenagers need guidance in certain aspects. Schools, churches and religious institutions try helping them with direction, but teenagers need frequent reminders, especially when they are in their late teens (16 to 19 years) when they deal with several new emotions, realisations and get a taste of much-awaited freedom as they venture out to college. Most parents want their children to have the best. At the same time, they worry about a lot of things such as choice of friends, atmosphere, style changes and loss of interest in studies. As parents, we understand our children's needs, but convincing them of the whys and the whats is a big task. Teenage - The Base of Adulthood is a simple guide for parents and teenagers. It defines their roles and offers practical help to both.
