by London Ford (Author) Teenage girls have a harder time than previous generations... Does she know what to expect and how to navigate the challenges with confidence? You've had 'the talk'. Your daughter has started her period, or she knows what to expect when it arrives... but is she truly prepared for everything that being a teenager entails? The reality is that being a teenager is a little different from how it was when you were growing up. Girls face contemporary challenges that simply weren't around for older generations... and no matter how well you think you've prepared them for their teenage years, there are bound to be a few things that slip through the net. Your daughter doesn't just need to know about the changes in her body. She needs to know about navigating significant issues like sexuality, gender identity, and body image... and she needs to know what to expect from the world around her while she battles the changes in her body and her soaring emotions. She needs to do this in her own time and at her own pace - after all, a huge part of growing up is getting to know yourself and understanding the importance of independence. But that doesn't mean she has to go it alone... Simply by providing her with the resources she needs in order to explore her identity and prepare her for the big wide world, you can help her step into womanhood completely in charge of her own pathway. Providing her with this unique guide to adolescence is the perfect way to do this.
