Being a good parent is one of the most difficult, yet most rewarding, jobs a person can have in his or her lifetime. Being the parent of a teen is an especially daunting phase of the journey.

What if you could turn that loop in your throat into a spiral of loving, honest, and exciting connection?

When a child begins to grow, they are exposed to issues that often spiral out of control. They may have anger that manifests in the most antisocial manner. As a child begins to comprehend the world of adolescence, there are many confusions and chaos, which can occasionally affect their growth.

Parents and educators must educate children about the various transitional changes that will occur in their bodies.

Gideon hates the idea of moving to Nevada from the East Coast. It's so empty and hot in his new neighborhood. Only one person his age lives nearby: the girl next door, Roona. Gid notices right away that Roona is...different. She wears roller skates and a blanket as a cape when she needs to feel strong. What he doesn't bargain for, however, is how far outside his comfort zone Roona will take him as she enlists his help in finding her long-gone father.
