7
habits of highly successful teens
By
seen covey
For
teens, life is not a playground, it’s a jungle. And, being the parent of
teenagers isn’t any walk in the park, either. In his book, the 7 habits of
highly effective teens, author Sean covey attempts to provide “a compass to
help teens and their parents navigate the problems they encounter daily.”
How will
they deal with peer pressure? Motivation? Success or lack thereof? The life of
teenagers is full of tough issues and life_ changing decisions. As a parent,
you are responsible to help them learn the principles and ethics that will help
them to reach their goals and live a successful life.
While
it’s all well and good to tell kids how to live lives, “teens watch what you do
more than they listen to what you say.” Covey says. So practice what you
preach. Your example can be very influential.

slacker. His own book has rung in more than respectable 2 million copies sold.
