ISBN-10: 0-9728071-6-0

When your children have a growing sense of independence and drivers licenses, parenting can become extra challenging. But if you have firm guidelines and show your teenagers you truly love them, you will not only keep the peace at home, but you will help those teenagers become responsible, caring adults. Parenting expert Corrie Lynne Player will show you exactly how to accomplish this.

Corrie Lynne Player is an author, educator, and lecturer with a masters degree in education from Stanford. Besides nine children of her own, she has mothered many other troubled foster children. She has been a contributor to Family Circle, Parents, McCall's, Ladies Home Journal, and Woman's Day.

"Corrie Lynn Player combines a delightful sense of humor with knowledge, insight, and a generous dose of common sense to produce a book I heartily recommend for parents of teens or children of any age."—Dr. Parnell Donahue,  noted pediatrician and former spokesperson for the American Academy of Pediatrics.

Gold Medal Parenting: Raising Teenagers to Be the Absolute Best They Can Be
by Parnell Donahue, M.D., and Tim Chavez
ISBN-13:978-1-60065-101-4
ISBN-10:1-60065-101-1

Dr. Donahue is a retired pediatrician and former spokesperson for the American Academy of Pediatrics. Tim Chavez is an award-winning human interest columnist for the Nashville Tennessean. Together, they show us how to bring out the best in our teenagers.

So many teenage parenting books are written by experts who, in their life's work, focus on the problem teenagers. In How to Win the Nobel Prize for Parenting, Dr. Donahue and Tim Chavez use the stories of dozens of wise and good teenagers to show us how to take good kids and inspire them to be great.

Warm-hearted and generous, this book will prove a potent tool to parents praying that their children avoid the shoals that injure or even wreck so many young lives, to come away truly successful.
