Take Notes on Adolescence from a Retired Educator

No-nonsense advice paves paths to navigating the complicated stages

Dover, New Jersey – WEBWIRE – Wednesday, July 31, 2019

Like puberty, adolescence is a stage that hits people like a truck. It brings physical, mental, emotional, and social changes kids may not be prepared for. Joseph Wardy offers positive and practical advice in “Everyday Wisdom for Teenagers.”

The book contains personal advice and sensible insights from Wardy. Presented with questions and original quote-like statements, the purpose of the book is to help teenagers go through the complicated stage that is adolescence. While most adolescents turn out fine, one can never be too complacent about the potential problems that arise during that specific stage.

According to Sharon Levy of the Harvard Medical School, some of the most common issues among adolescents are academic problems, growth and development issues, lingering childhood illnesses, mental health disorders, substance abuse disorders, and the consequences that accompany illegal behaviors. Because adolescence can be a tricky stage to navigate, teenagers should open themselves up to some much-needed guidance from supportive parties to further their overall growth as people.

Wardy is well-aware of the problems that adolescence can present. He hopes his book can be a partner for both teenagers and parents—the former can benefit from his advice and the latter can take cues from the book to help their kids out.

Allow “Everyday Wisdom for Teenagers” to be a guide for growth. Interested readers can purchase copies from selected online bookstores. More information on Wardy and his work is available in his website, www.wardywisdom.com.
