Parenting Wisely:
​TEEN Edition

Ten typical problem situations are presented including: doing household chores, stepparent-youth relationships, monitoring "troublesome" friends, improving poor school performance, sibling fighting, and complying with parental requests (phone use and music volume) and more. Both effective and ineffective solutions are depicted for each problem followed by comprehensive critiques and explanations of the parenting and communication skills viewed. Typically suited for ages 11 and up.

​Parenting Wisely has been named an "exemplary" program by the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention (OJJDP), a "model" program by The Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (CSAP) and listed as an evidence-based program by the National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP) and a "best practices" program by the Center for the Application of Prevention Technologies (WCAPT).
