Dad’s Great Advice for Parents of Teens by Marc Fienberg

As a mom I can’t wait to read this new novel and see what advice fathers have for kids. Because some of the things David tells Charlie makes me scratch my head and say really and I want to see if the same thing happens in this novel.

The first in a series including Dad’s Great Advice for Parents of Teens, Dad’s Great Advice for College Students, and Dad’s Great Advice for Everybody, for review in your gift guide. Dad’s Great Advice for Teens is the perfect gift to help a teenager get happy, be successful, and make good decisions. (But it’s also an amazing gift for any parent trying to connect more with their kid.)

BOOK SUMMARY:

What kind of crazy father actually advises teens to…Ignore their parents (if what their parents want doesn’t mesh with what they want)

Do dumb, risky things (as long as they’re not really dumb things)

Ignore everything their boyfriend/girlfriend says (and focus on what they do)

Fail at their endeavors (rather than not trying at all out of fear)

Dump their friends (if they aren’t the type of people they want to become)

Don’t do the “smart” thing (if their gut tells them to go in a different direction)

Drink, vape, and do drugs (in a smart, disciplined way, and only if they’re determined to not wait)

Have sex (only when their heart and brain tell them they’re ready)

Not strive for success (in the way others want them to, but rather, define success on their own terms)

Limit the number of friends they have (so they can build deeper friendships with the friends they do have)

Dad’s Great Advice for Teens talks to teens on their own level without being preachy or unrealistic, but doesn’t pull any punches. The book includes 25 short pieces of Great Advice, filled with humor, wisdom, and inspirational quotes, to keep the attention of even the most distracted teen.

It’s the perfect self-help survival and success guide for teens looking to build positive habits and get an edge up, and it’s a great gift from Dad, Mom, or anybody.

Thank you,

Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
