As a Catholic theologian, an educator, and father to three teens, Tim Muldoon has a solid foundation for giving advice on raising teens. Add to the mix Sue, a therapist and religious educator and you have the perfect couple to author a book. The Discerning Parent gathers their wisdom and experience into a guide. The Muldoons skillfully blend personal experience and practical advice with wisdom they've learned from Ignatian spirituality to offer guidance for Catholic parents on raising teens and tweens. You'll gain confidence to help your teen make better decisions, deepen the roots for your parenting, and relate to your teen in a way that reflects the tenacious love of God. The Muldoons share their wisdom and encourage you to:
- Let your teens know you love them.
- Appreciate their gifts while accepting their limits.
- Put them in touch with those less fortunate.
- Guide them in choosing friends who will care about what is best for them.
Their thoughtful approach will slow you down, remind you to listen, pray and discern through the practice of Ignatian spirituality. Discover when to be tough and when to forgive, when to control or give freedom, and more. Prayers, devotions and meditations serve to guide as you create a way to move through the challenges all youth and their parents face.
