Being a teenager is hard – especially in today’s societal climate. Teens are often stereotyped, misunderstood, and even demonized, contributing to the already astounding decline in mental health among this generation. During this delicate stage of development, teens desperately need parents who partner with them to succeed and thrive. However, more often than not parents struggle to relate and connect with their young adults – creating a rift rather than support.
Lainie Liberti’s Amazon best-selling book, “Seen, Heard & Understood – Parenting and Partnering with Teens for Greater Mental Health” has rapidly become a survival guide for parents of teens seeking authentic connection with their kids. Liberti is an author, international speaker, community leader, teen mentor, and alternative education advocate who helped to spearhead the thriving worldschooling movement.
Seen, Heard & Understood dismantles many ‘traditional’ parenting techniques rooted in coercion to introduce a new era of connection and partnership. Liberti helps parents understand their teen’s developmental stages and behaviors in an easy-to-follow format through stories, research, applied psychology, and science-backed tools. This hands-on method of parenting teens is well-researched, endorsed by MDs, PhDs, and other mental health professionals, and spreading like wildfire among parents.
Combining psychology, neurobiology, and social development theories, Seen, Heard & Understood equips parents with the tools they need to support their child, transform their relationships and work together towards improved mental health. Lainie is releasing the first-anniversary edition of Seen, Heard & Understood as she welcomes tweens and teens to join her 12-week course where these concepts are taught and applied in real-time.
“As a mom of two teenagers and a longtime admirer of Lainie Liberti’s work, I value her insights on prioritizing connection over coercion in our parenting approach. Seen, Heard & Understood provides the tools and inspiration to build a powerful, peaceful partnership with our teens.” -Kerry McDonald, Author of Unschooled: Raising Curious, Well-Educated Children Outside the Conventional Classroom
Through proof of concept, dedication to community, and unwavering commitment to helping parents cultivate authentic partnerships with their teens, Lainie Liberti’s purpose-driven vision has come to fruition.
