Book Description
PARENTING NEVER ENDS. From the founders of the #1 site for parents of teens and young adults comes an essential guide for building strong relationships with your teens and preparing them to successfully launch into adulthood The high school and college years: an extended roller coaster of academics, friends, first loves, first break-ups, driver’s ed, jobs, and everything in between. Kids are constantly changing and how we parent them must change, too. But how do we stay close as a family as our lives move apart? Enter the co-founders of Grown and Flown, Lisa Heffernan and Mary Dell Harrington. In the midst of guiding their own kids through this transition, they launched what has become the largest website and online community for parents of fifteen to twenty-five year olds.

Grown and Flown is a one-stop resource for parenting teenagers, leading up to—and through—high school and those first years of independence. It covers everything from the monumental (how to let your kids go) to the mundane (how to shop for a dorm room). Organized by topic—such as academics, anxiety and mental health, college life—it features a combination of stories, advice from professionals, and practical sidebars. Consider this your parenting lifeline: an easy-to-use manual that offers support and perspective. Grown and Flown is required reading for anyone looking to raise an adult with whom you have an enduring, profound connection.

Book Description
Giving good advice is one of the biggest parts of being a dad. Dads must advise their kids, counsel them, warn them not to do that thing they're about to do, and offer them nuggets of lived-in wisdom that might prevent them from repeating their mistakes. Of course, so much of a father's best advice falls on deaf ears and he is forced to repeat it 9746 times until he becomes a caricature of himself but his kid finally hears and understands what it is he's trying to say. Such is the cycle. But, rest assured, kids do listen and, as they grow older, will remember those words. So, keep at it. Want proof or inspiration for what advice to pass down? This collection is one father's collection of advice for his three sons, inspired by the thought that life is unpredictable and we never know what tomorrow will bring. The author's no-holds-barred approach brings a refreshing honesty to the stories he shares about growing up, mistakes he's made and lessons learned during various stages in his life. With the hope of guiding his boys to be strong men, loyal friends, and loving fathers, the author put together this heartfelt memoir in case he can't be there himself.

THOUGH I can never pay enough to your Grandfathers Memory, for his tender care of my Education, yet I must observe in it this Mistake; That by keeping me at home, where I was one of my young Masters, I lost the advantage of my most docile time. For not undergoing the same Discipline, I must needs come short of their experience, that are bred up in Free Schools; who, by plotting to rob an Orchard, &c. run through all the Subtilties required in taking of a Town; being made, by use, familiar to Secresie, and Compliance with Opportunity; Qualities never after to be attained at cheaper rates than the hazard of all: whereas these see the danger of trusting others, and the Rocks they fall upon, by a too obstinate adhering to their own imprudent resolutions; and all this under no higher penalty than a Whipping: And 'tis possible this indulgence of my Father might be the cause I afforded him so poor a Return for all his Cost. But But though Children attain to an exacter Knowledge, both of themselves and the World, in Free and populous Schools, than under a more solitary Erudition; yet I think the Charity of our Forefathers in nothing so much mistaken, as in the vast Sums they imployed in these (more seeming than real) pious uses, which now much redounds to the prejudice of the Plough, and the more beneficial Manufactures of our Nation; The Sons of the Menu lying so long under this lazy Course, that they are rendred ever after resty to Labour and Travel: which fills the Common-wealth with Thieves and Beggars; no way to be prevented, but by garbling out of them all Boys of an incapacity, and retaining none that make not more than an ordinary demonstration of an extraordinary propensity to Learning: since...
