Book Review:
 
First time author, Allyson Hawkins Ward, has written a book to help parents guide their teenage children to college and independence.  In May 2014, 4 out of 5 college graduates did not have a job lined up when they graduated.  Today there are more young people ill-prepared for life after college.  They have worked hard to get into the college of their choice and then when they get there they are either underperforming or are calling upon their parents at every challenge to solve them for them.  Consequently, they are having a harder time getting a job when they graduate and a tougher time getting life started.
 
This book describes the four tips needed to propel them to independence and to transition your relationship from that of supervisor to that of Trusted Advisor.  Each section will have stories to illustrate specific examples of what has been helpful to other parents.   

Four Tips: Parents Transition from Supervisor to Trusted Advisor
 
The Four Tips are built on the acronym GRIT as it represents the building blocks for raising an independent young adult as a reminder that, in most cases, a solid, focused effort is what is required to achieve success.  
 
 
GRIT also stands for:
Game Plan
Resourcefulness
Investment
Transformation
 
Three underlying themes
 
1.      We are in this together.  All good parents suffer some self-doubt about preparing their children for success in life.  In time we learn that a little doubt helps to make us better parents.  The doubt demonstrates that we consider the challenge of rearing loving, yet independent children to be very important and worthy of our energy and best efforts.  One of the most important things for you, the reader, to remember is that you are not alone.  Rather, you are part of a large fraternity of very good parents.
 
2.     To be successful in our ever-changing world, our teens will need more than good test scores and a great GPA.  While these accomplishments may help them gain acceptance to a competitive college, they do not ensure that our teens will be prepared to achieve success or happiness.
 
3.     Children are naturally creative, resourceful and whole.  And when cultivated, these all-important traits lead to realizing the skills necessary to problem solve and transition to independence.  As our teens get ready to leave our homes for college, it is paramount that our relationships with them change.  The role of Supervisor served us well when they were children.  As they head into adulthood, it is time for us to transition to the role of Trusted Advisor.
