BRIDGES Not BARRIERS: The Art of Building a Better Connection with Your Teen

Carol Moore’s Bridges Not Barriers gives parents seven practical tools for how to build a strong connection with their tweens and teens with grace. She offers an easy to follow guide through the acronym B.R.I.D.G.E.S: Boundaries, Respect, Information, Delivery, Grace, Engagement, Sacred pause Don’t let your teenager slip away! Those eye-rolls, pulled up hoodies, and turned backs don’t have to signal the end of a great relationship with your evolving children. In fact, it can be the beginning of some of the deepest connections you could ever imagine. Let’s face it, raising teenagers is hard, and being one is hard too. Without the right tools or skills to navigate these ten or so years, the experience can be frustrating, explosive, distancing, and potentially dangerous. The barriers between you and your teen will not only deteriorate your relationship with them, but it can also prevent you from keeping them safe at a time when they are beginning to stretch away from you. What if instead of conflict, frustration, and disconnection, there was a way that you could bridge the gap between you and your teen with respect, trust, grace, and love? Imagine using these adolescent years to build your connection with your teen as you help them steer their way toward adulthood. In Bridges Not Barriers, I will give you the seven tools that I used to not only survive these years with my teens, but to help us all come out on the other side with a bond built upon deep trust, honesty, respect, and love for one another. I will show you how these years can be really enjoyable (not easy), once we let go of control and allow our children to blossom into the incredible beings they were meant to be. This book can be read in a day, and the tools inside have the potential to transform not only your relationship with your teen, but every relationship in your life. They will require some time and patience to master, but they will be invaluable in developing a strong connection with your children that can last a lifetime.
