Thank you, Mr. Chapman, for this book! I've read the children and adults one, but this teen one comes along at a perfect time, as our own children are reaching that stage. It's a difficult time to navigate, and this book has given me lots of suggestions for how to get through the tricky times. With any luck, I'll be able to trick....um, convince....my husband into reading it, too!

Very easy to read & engaging from the beginning. As a parent, I was happy to read that we are doing things "right" with our children. As someone who teaches an 8-week parenting course, I found many examples to share with the parents of older children. This book will become a reference point for that class, as well as be told to many parents as a "you should read this".

Very helpful in helping me understand and communicate love to my son.

When dealing with teenagers it's really sort of like finding your way through a maze. Every child is different and has different emotional and physical needs. After reading this book, I was really able to start to sense what my children need. By employing the use of the love language it really makes your child know that you understand and love them. It eases situations that could escalate especially when a child is upset. The way I parent with teenagers is really different from when they were little and I think by using these love languages in your arsenal of parenting is truly helpful.

The 5 Love Languages of Teenagers By Gary Chapman.

Gary Chapman first wrote the book "Five Love Languages". Since then the books have been customised for different markets including Men, Children, Teenagers, Singles and Military.

This version follows a similar format that outlines the five Love Languages: Physical Touch, Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Gifts, and Acts of Service. This is followed by chapters on how to discover your teenager's primary love language, and how the Love languages affect their love, responsibility development, independence, and dealing with failure.

There is a section of Speaking your teenager's love language and applying them in a single parent family, and blended families.

The book is an excellent practical resource for parents to understand their teenager, how they feel, and how to express love to a teenager in a way that has meaning to them. This unconditional love boosts a teenager's emotional needs and therefore their self-esteem.

There are lots of practical suggestions and ideas for each of the love languages.

A book that should be read regularly by every parent.
