Die Bewertung der Kindheit unterliegt in der Psychologie heftigen Trendschwankungen. Lange Zeit schien es klar zu sein: Alle Probleme und Störungen haben ihre Ursache in den ersten Lebensjahren.

Being a good parent is one of the most difficult, yet most rewarding, jobs a person can have in his or her lifetime. Being the parent of a teen is an especially daunting phase of the journey. As parents begin to notice the significant changes that come with adolescence (physical changes brought about by puberty, the constant angst and moodiness, and of course the classic eye-rolling and the I-know-it-all attitude), they wonder just what happened to their happy, sweet, and affectionate young boy or girl.

Emotional intelligence is the ability to understand one's own emotions, as well as the emotions of others. Emotional intelligence (or "EI") is used on a daily basis to comprehend and label different emotions appropriately, and to behave in ways that reflect the emotions of themselves and the people around them. It is extremely important in the development of children; they must understand emotional responses and behavior around them to not only comprehend the situations they are within, but to fully develop as well-rounded adults.

Parents these days are under a great deal of pressure to be "perfect". From psychologists to social scientists, journalists to weekend bloggers, everyone has an opinion about the do's and don'ts for raising healthy, well-adjusted - and let's not forget polite - children in today's fast-paced world. Where does this leave parents? Too often lacking in confidence, ill equipped, and overwhelmed. Parenting expert Vicki Hoefle makes the bold claim that it's time for parents to get off the perfection path and get back to the real job of parenting: to grow a grown-up.
