Preparing Adolescents for Responsible Adulthood

Today I found the first draft of our "rocket plan" to guide our sweet tweener through her teens and successfully launch her into adulthood. These goals were written while she was still in sixth grade. Hindsight proves it was definitely a good idea to have written something down before entering those crazy, changing years. Most of these goals came to fruition; some did not. But, we did have a plan and more or less stayed on course. This "rocket plan" would prove to take us through more peaceful teen years than stressful!

1st Draft - April 2, 1990

Never can we have claimed to have been the perfect parents of a perfect teen, and life was not always easy and often did not go as planned, but this book, Parenting Teens with Love and Logic assisted us tremendously! It is updated & expanded, but even more, it is still an invaluable resource for parents of teens!!

p.s. Tried and true...our daughter that these suggestions were practiced on safely launched is now living as a responsible and productive adult!! :-)
