Abstract
Appréhender et tempérer les troubles de l'adolescence. Tous les ados ne se ressemblent pas. Certains vivent cette période repliés dans leur chambre, d'autres ne cessent de sortir. Certains perdent tout intérêt pour les études, d'autres sont toujours premiers, certains ont le joint aux lèvres dès le lever, d'autres n'y toucheraient pour rien au monde et d'autres encore oscillent entre les deux extrêmes. Il reste que certains traits se dégagent et que tous vivent une période complexe. Crise ? Oui, en quelque sorte. L'adolescent traverse une crise, une transformation. L'adolescence inquiète parce que les risques sont effectivement là. Et pour traverser cette étape, Les ados ont besoin de leurs parents. A leurs côtés et non en face d'eux. Conçu comme les précédents - par tranche d'âge -, ce livre explore la psychologie des adolescents, ainsi que certaines composantes biologiques et physiologiques, et aide ainsi à poser un regard nouveau sur les motivations de leurs comportements.

Je m?appelle Alex et je suis enfin bien dans ma peau! En fait, je viens de sortir d?une période difficile de ma vie. J?étais tellement mal, c?est fou. Je me sentais un peu comme si je ne voyais pas la lumière au bout du tunnel, tu connais cette expression? J?ai surmonté ce que les spécialistes appellent l?anxiété. C?est pour en parler et partager mes découvertes sur le sujet que j?ai créé ce blogue. (Et aussi parce que je suis d?une générosité sans fin!) Sérieusement, c?est surtout parce que je suis sûre que d?autres jeunes vivent ce genre d?expérience. Est-ce ton cas? La collection Perso propose des récits d?intervention destinés aux ados qui traversent des situations difficiles. « Alex » leur permettra de mieux comprendre ce qu?est l?anxiété, de se sentir moins seuls et, surtout, de trouver des trucs et des exercices pour surmonter leurs difficultés.

Que se passe-t-il dans la tête d'un adolescent ? Comment répondre au chaos émotionnel qu'il traverse ? Beaucoup de parents, dépassés par les métamorphoses de leur enfant, s'interrogent. Longtemps, on a cru que tout venait des hormones. Grâce aux neurosciences, on sait aujourd'hui que le remodelage du cerveau est au coeur de l'adolescence. Entre 12 et 24 ans, c'est un immense chantier, où tout n'est pas encore connecté. D'où les sautes d'humeur de l'ado et son hypersensibilité. D'où ses difficultés à prévoir et anticiper. Autant de situations face auxquelles interdire ou réprimer est souvent contre-productif... Le Dr Daniel Siegel nous donne ici les clés pour relever l'un des plus grands défis de la parentalité : accueillir l'incroyable potentiel de l'adolescent, instaurer un dialogue sécurisant, l'aider à développer les facultés d'introspection et d'empathie qui feront de lui un adulte équilibré et apte au bonheur. Le conflit intergénérationnel n'est pas une fatalité!

Abstract
"As parents, we worry about our children - about their physical health, performance at school, the types of friends they have, and, of course, their mental health. Every day seems to bring new and expanding issues and disorders and troubling statistics about the rise of mental illness in children and teens. It's usually obvious what to do for physical injuries like broken bones, but when it comes to our children's mental health, the answers are much less clear, and sometimes even contradictory.
"Pier Bryden and Peter Szatmari, top child and adolescent psychiatrists, are here to help. Using their combined six decades working with families and kids - and their own experiences as parents - they break down the stigma of mental health illness and walk parents through the warning signs, risk factors, prevention strategies, and the process of diagnosis and treatment for mental health challenges arising from: anxiety, substance use disorders, eating disorders, sleep disorders, depression, trauma, suicidal thoughts and behaviors, psychosis, ADHD, and autism.
"The most important thing to remember as a parent is that you and your child are not alone and there is a lot you can do to improve your child's mental health. The road ahead isn't always easy or straightforward, but start here to learn how to advocate for your child's well-being"--from the inside front cover.

Abstract
You Know, Sex is the first thoroughly modern sex education book for every body, covering not only the big three of puberty?hormones, reproduction, and development?but also power, pleasure, and how to be a decent human being.
Centering young people?s experiences of pressures and joy, risk and reward, and confusion and discovery, there are chapters on body autonomy, gender, consent, pornography, masturbation, stigma, boundaries, harassment,
trauma, and a lot more.
The puberty, anatomy, and reproduction chapters include trans, nonbinary, and intersex bodies and experience, and all of it takes place in our contemporary, media-saturated world (aka, there?s lots of smart phones and social media).
Racially and ethnically diverse, inclusive of cross-disability experience, You Know, Sex is a book for every kind of young person and every kind of family?essential for kids, everyone who knows a kid, and anyone who has ever been a kid.

Abstract
A l'école ou à la maison, les parents et les professeurs demandent tous les jours aux enfants d'être attentifs et sages. Mais il ne leur expliquent pas comment y parvenir. Et si la solution était une technique inventée il y a 2400 ans? La méditation est un apprentissage extraordinaire pour acquérir plus de calme, de concentration, mais aussi pour développer la curiosité, la confiance en soi et l'ouverture aux autres. Dans un monde où jeux vidéos, cellulaires et ordinateurs entraînent agitation et troubles du sommeil, le pouvoir de quelques exercices tout simple est spectaculaire. Depuis plus de quatorze ans, Susan Kaiser Greenland a mis au point une méthode spécialement adaptée aux enfants. Inventif et ludique, cet ouvrage livre le fruit de son travail, validé par l'université de Californie.

Abstract
Empower teens to take charge of their digital lives.
Without avoiding the dark side of technology, this interactive and comprehensive reference book empowers teens to take charge of their digital life and improve their mental health and well-being. Quizzes and exercises guide readers through the process of evaluating their relationships with their screens, social media, and tech in general.
With a frank and humorous approach to a timely topic, award-winning author Alex J. Packer, Ph.D., pulls back the curtain on the hidden aspects of the digital world and shares:
. Signs that screen time is affecting teens? bodies, brains, and relationships
. Tips for protecting their privacy, safety, and reputation.
. Ways social media and algorithms can distort their reality and sense of self
. Tools for finding life balance and resetting their screen scene
Slaying Digital Dragons is a call to action to make the choices that are right for teens. It doesn?t demand ditching smartphones or deactivating social media. Instead, it suggests strategies for playing favorite games and posting on favorite apps, while also doing good in the world and bringing joy and encouragement to others. It invites readers to join the resistance and learn how to thwart the manipulative forces trying to control and profit off their users. And it gives teens what they need to stay safe and take charge of their digital life.
