Helping Your Unmotivated Teen

I thoroughly enjoyed this book, and as a mother to a teenager deeply immersed in video games, it came as a breath of fresh air during a time of personal doubt and parental frustration. It offered me a new perspective on my approach to parenting, introducing techniques and insights I’m excited to apply. More so, it reaffirmed the effectiveness of strategies I’m already using, like fostering autonomy and teaching the importance of facing the consequences of one’s actions. This validation has been a comforting reminder that perhaps I’m navigating motherhood more successfully than I feared. The book is well-organized, providing valuable insights that I’m eager to integrate into my parenting style. It’s a must-read for parents in similar situations, offering both innovative strategies and much-needed reassurance.

This book offers very practical stategies for parents dealing with unmotivated teens. Its broken down very well. Simple but powerful techniques that will empow parents to support their teens. I really enjoyed this book. Thank you to the author, publisher and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this book.

This is an excellent, albeit repetitive, summary of the science of motivation and its implications and applications for the unmotivated teen. Grounded in self-determination, mindset, and grit, the book does a great job of offering advice and helping parents understand important concepts and the rationale for the advice shared.
