What Your Daughter Isn't Telling You: A Revealing Look at the Secret Reality of Your Teen Girl

A Mother's Guide to Communicating with Her Teen Daughter

Many daughters are hesitant to share their deepest thoughts and questions with their moms for fear of being misunderstood or laughed at. Many moms don't know how to communicate with their teen daughters. Taken from real-life questions submitted by teen girls and by moms, this book guides moms through their daughters' tough teen years and covers broad topics such as communication, trust, and overprotectiveness as well as more focused issues, including modesty, boys, and curfews. This repackaged edition includes a new chapter on social media.

From the Back Cover

How much do you really know about your daughter's day-to-day life, what secrets she has about her friends, or what questions she's too embarrassed or scared to ask you? Fact: Her world is dramatically different from the one you grew up in. She has some tough questions. "What if I'm out in public when I get my first period?" "How can I get my mom and dad to trust me?" and "My friend put some embarrassing pictures of me online; how do I get them down?" are real concerns for young girls.

Your teen or preteen girl is at the age when she needs you the most, yet all too often she closes herself off. Don't give her the opportunity to look for answers or comfort elsewhere. She needs a mom who will really listen. Teen experts Susie Shellenberger and Kathy Gowler arm you with answers to real-life questions from girls just like your daughter. Use this biblically sound advice to help keep communication open between you and your daughter, and feel confident that there isn't anything she isn't telling you.
