Simple Ways to Keep Your Cool in Stressful Times The new title in the bestselling series DON'T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF - this time for teens and their parents. Anyone who thinks teenagers have it easy hasn't been to a high school recently. As the headlines remind us daily, our teenagers deal with stress in just about every facet of their lives: academically, in sports, social situations, family life, money matters and even work. Now, in DON'T SWEAT THE SMALL STUFF FOR TEENS, Richard Carlson applies the same techniques to teenagers that have made his other books required reading for anyone coping with life's everyday challenges. He uses bite-sized chapters and simple, straightforward language to help show teenagers how not to stress out about homework, peer pressure, the opposite sex, parents, and other potentially difficult areas. Topics include: ** Be Creative in Your Rebellion ** Start a Mutual Listening Club ** Notice your Parents Doing things Right ** Be OK With Your Bad hair Day ** Turn Down the Drama Meter ** Take Criticism a Little Less Personally ** Don't Throw Up on Your Friends ** Don't Sweat the Future ** Don't be an Approval-Seeker ** Don't be A Disapproval-Seeker Either
