Teenager Tales (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781639044900)

The lives of teenagers today have become more challenging than ever before. Modern parents have become liberal and understanding in their outlook yet parenting is becoming more and more challenging as we are marching into technological modernisation and the lines between reality and virtuality are blending. These short, real life stories illustrate the modern teenagers' point of view to make parents understand them better. They make an attempt to bridge the gap between generations.

Our technologically advanced existence has added a plethora of comforts into our lives. But it has introduced us to greater challenges and compared to the yesteryears. Many teenagers who are caught in a transitional phase, make use of 'artificial' intelligence for seeking their plausible professions but are expected to make a dynamic difference to the 'real' world.' Major issues and aspects gobble up the limelight. It is true that youngsters are becoming precocious and getting afflicted by matters that affected adults. But problems are not merely related to the larger, more impactful aspects, they might emanate from subtle and delicate ones. Social exclusion by peers, creating emotional distress due to physical, mental or emotional incompetency, though mild in comparison, can have similar and far reaching impact on developing minds.

As we are marching into technological modernisation and the lines between reality and virtuality are blending, parenting is becoming more challenging.
