As a mother of a teen and tween I have found, by dipping in and out of this book, the advice, tools and tips provided by both mum and daughter so insightful, relevant and up to date. I highly recommend giving this book a read!

Description

'This book has it all. No topic is shied away from. Robyn and Molly share their unique style and deliver an insightful, inclusive and incredibly current view of parenting and childhood. A must-read!' - Nathan Wallis, Neuroscience Educator 'This New Zealand mother and daughter collaboration gives enormous insight to being a teen today. There is such a chasm between what parents experienced as adolescents themselves and what today's adolescents are experiencing, and this book fills in the gaps. It explores teens and tech, body talk, well-being, personal and sexual health, sense, being a rainbow teen, bullying and the problem with porn. It is absolutely packed with commonsense and practical guidance that will really help you be the rails on the bridge that your teens need you to be. Well done Robyn and your daughter Molly...such a wonderful guide for parents.'- Maggie Dent, Parenting Specialist and Educator In this fast-changing world how do we, as parents and caregivers, keep on the same page as our teens? The challenges and experiences they face can seem a million miles away from our own adolescence. It can feel overwhelming and hard to keep the communication channels open. At the same time, it's vital that we have the tools to talk openly and confidently with our teens. The Kids Will Be All Right provides up-to-date, evidence-based information, insights, conversation starters and resources to help you navigate and untangle hot topics such as friendships and frenemies; bullying; cyber safety; drinking, vaping and risk-taking behaviour; self-esteem and body image; sexuality; consent and safe relationships; and pornography. Co-written by Robyn - a nurse and educator who provides education programmes throughout schools and communities in New Zealand on health and wellbeing, including body image, cyber safety, sexuality, puberty and respectful relationships - and her daughter Molly, who weaves her perspective throughout, The Kids Will Be All Right is an insightful, accessible and empathetic guide that empowers parents and caregivers to relate to and communicate effectively with their teen.

Author Biography:

Robyn Fausett is a registered nurse and the CEO of Nest Consulting, which provides services dedicated to health and wellbeing, including education programmes throughout schools and communities in New Zealand that cover body image, cyber safety, sexuality, puberty and respectful relationships. Robyn is the researcher and writer of the majority of these programmes. Nest's programmes are evidence-based, utilising the WHO-recognised Hauora approach, and they integrate holistic age-appropriate information for a whole sense of valuing self, others and our environment. Launched in 2010, these popular programmes are now delivered by Nest Consulting's educators and facilitators NZ-wide. Robyn is also a speaker, regularly providing events for parents about topics relevant to tweens and teens, for health care providers on the subject of fertility and for communities and corporates on various topics including women's health and menopause. In addition, Robyn has been instrumental as a Board member within various community-focused charities and organisations (most recently the 'Healing Through Arts Trust' Board and the 'WALSH Trust' Board (supporting people with mental health and social, illness or disability challenges). She is accredited as a 'Nourish' body image/media awareness programme facilitator through what was formerly EDEN (Eating Disorders Education Network), as a period education facilitator with 'A Celebration Day for Girls' and 'Days for Girls', and as an educator and trainer with Natural Fertility NZ. Robyn also works within the disability sector providing specific sexuality and healthy relationship education to young people and their whanau. Molly Fausett has a degree in cultural anthropology and sociology, with a focus on gender studies and sexuality. She has worked at Nest Consulting in various roles, including assisting in the development of its youth programmes. Molly now works for the Ministry of Health within the mental health and addictions directorate.
