About this item

An honest guide to cultivate connection and confidence with your tween.. Growing up today can feel like chaos. Everyone expects the teen years to be tough, but what about the years before? Pink Chaos is a guide for moms who are navigating the stormy waters of parenting daughters aged 9 to 12.. Having a strong mother/daughter relationship can help prevent serious mental health issues -- including suicide, disordered eating, and self-harm -- as girls move from tweens to teens. Shayna Barksdale shows how now is the time to put a foundation in place to support daughters to prevent mental health struggles in later years.. Kids are living in a world that's totally foreign to their parents -- Barksdale calls it "Girl World" -- a place full of pressures and anxieties around school, parents, relationships, friends, social media, and global events as well as wonderful things moms probably couldn't have even imagined (like greater representation around gender, body size, abilities, and more) .
