Daughters are lovely little angels as kids, but dealing with teenage daughters is something altogether different. It is not an easy task to endure the growing teenage daughters. At times they are the most charming and sweetest people in the world and at other times they can be harsh and greatly rude. It is next to impossible to understand their mood swings. Above that, I and my wife are constantly worried about the issues like Boyfriends, smoking and alcohol. Dealing with tears and tantrums is one hell of a task. Parents need to be very careful as you may never know what can trigger a reaction.

The reason I am speaking about this issue today is because I read about a book which is being written by a Headmistress called “Your daughter: Guide to raising Girls” with inputs from a staff of over 200 teachers. I am told that it has good advice on diverse topics ranging from sleepovers to tattoos for girls. The teenage years are troublesome and tensed for a girl’s parents. The book speaks about dealing strategies. My question is, this book will be equally available to teenagers too, so they would already know if we are following the book. Will it serve its purpose then?
