Your ten- to fourteen-year-old

by Louise Bates Ames and Frances L. Ilg ; Gesell Institute of Child Development ; illustrated with photographs by Betty David

The years from ten to fourteen are undeniably trying and turbulent years for parents and children alike. Adolescents develop by leaps and bounds during these years, and often find themselves uncomfortable with who they are and what they re feeling. Parents, too, don t know what to expect from the adolescent child who is at one moment hostile and glum, at the next carefree and happy. Your Ten- to Fourteen-Year-Old was written by renowned child-care experts Louise Bates Ames, Frances Ilg, and Sidney Baker to help prepare parents for the incredible changes their children will be going through
