Gathered here are hundreds of practical, creative, and proven tips that cover all aspects of parenting a teen:

-School and Learning--Free yourself from being the "homework cop," while nurturing both curiosity and enthusiasm
-Friendships and Relationships--Use role-playing to handle peer pressure, and help nurture healthy relationships
-Drugs and Alcohol--Pinpoint telltale signs of problems before they become serious, and stay involved by providing alternatives to parties with alcohol
-Responsibilities and Money--Strike a balance between chores and allowance, and make part-time jobs an introduction to money management
