Award-Winning Journalist Presents a New Book on Nurturing Teens in Today's World

Co-author Susan FitzGerald will talk about Letting Go With Love and Confidence on Thursday, March 8, 7:30pm at Radnor Memorial Library. Along with renowned adolescent medicine specialist Kenneth Ginsberg, MD, the author has written a sensible and considerate resource for parents. There are many new pressures and opportunities for kids to grow up faster than they should. For parents, 'letting go' and nurturing teens in today's world to become healthy, well-adjusted adults is more challenging now than ever before.

As Dr. Ginsburg explains in the book, it is these everyday decisions and conversations that have the greatest potential to foster resilience and build confidence. From cell phones and the Internet to handling issues surrounding sex, friends, dating, driving, staying home alone and more, Ginsburg's three-step litmus test can apply to any decision: Is it safe? Is it practical? Does it meet my standards for morality and decency?

This is a wonderful guide...refreshingly up-to-date and down to earth. Recently, excerpts from Letting Go have appeared on WHYY radio and on their website.

Refreshments will be served. Books will be available for purchase.

See you at the Library,

Pam
