Teen pop is a sub-genre of popular music marketed to tweens and teens. Its melodic yearning and veneer of sincerity appeal to an emerging romantic eroticism and autonomy. But tweens and teens buy music that isn't primarily marketed to them, too. Teen pop encompasses several kinds of musical styles, not limiting itself to just one-teen pop wants to play. During the 1970s, teen pop sometimes worked subversively, challenging the status quo it seemed to represent. Male pop stars such as David Cassidy were shown suggestively in popular magazines and female pop stars such as Cher had their own TV shows. Teen magazines, pin-ups, comics, films, and TV programs provided luscious visual stereo, promoting fashion styles, lingo, and dance moves, signaling individual identity but also community. The music provided a way for young people to believe they had something all their own, an authenticity experimenting with sexuality and social conduct, all dressed up in glitter and satin, blue jeans and boom boxes, torn fishnets and safety pins and, magically, their dreams. Cartoon pop and made-for-TV bands! Bubblegum pop! Glam! Hip hop! Hard rock and pop rock and stadium rock! Punk! Disco! Teen pop reinforced aspects of the counterculture it absorbed as the music kept playing-and playing back.Although it's very difficult to attain and maintain social progress and play it forward-there are so many tragedies-'70s Teen Pop examines how liberation and a true counterculture can be possible through music.
"The definitive book on helping kids navigate growing up in a world where nearly every moment of their lives can be shared and compared With social media and constant connection, the boundaries of privacy are stretched thin. Growing Up in Public shows parents how to help tweens and teens navigate boundaries, identity, privacy, and reputation in their digital world. We can track our kids' every move with apps, see their grades within minutes of being posted, and fixate on their digital footprint, anxious that a misstep could cause them to be "canceled" or even jeopardize their admission to college. And all of this adds pressure on kids who are coming of age immersed in social media platforms that emphasize "personal brand," "likes," and "gotcha" moments. How can they figure out who they really are with zero privacy and constant judgment? Devorah Heitner shows us that by focusing on character, not the threat of getting caught or exposed, we can support our kids to be authentically themselves. Drawing on her extensive work with parents and schools as well as hundreds of interviews with kids, parents, educators, clinicians, and scholars, Heitner offers strategies for parenting our kids in an always-connected world. With relatable stories and research-backed advice, Growing Up in Public empowers parents to cut through the overwhelm to connect with their kids, recognize how to support them, and help them figure out who they are when everyone is watching"--

Filip så fra den ene til den anden, som de sad dér rundt om bordet. Det er mine venner, tænkte han. Og for første gang stod det ham klart, at Ffaffner, Leopold, Pippin, Biella og Miro var de eneste mennesker i hele verden, han kunne stole på! En varm følelse skyllede gennem ham.Bjarne Reuter kan om nogen malende beskrive de vigtige venskaber, vi danner, både når vi er børn, og når vi er unge mennesker med den ene fod i voksenlivet.I Om venskab er samlet nogle af Bjarne Reuters bedste beskrivelser af de venskaber, som både gør ondt og godt, men som alle er helt uundværlige. Med uddrag fra Drengene fra Skt. Petri, Når snerlen blomstrer, En som Hodder, Zappa og Busters verdenBogen udkommer i Gyldendals Kolibri-serie, der er bøger om stærke emner skrevet af store forfattere. Kolibrien hører til blandt verdens mindste fugle, og bøgerne i serien er da også mindre end de fleste bøger. Serienavnet er altså både et nik til formatet og samtidig til Gyldendals historie, hvor forlaget igennem tiden lejlighedsvis har benyttet fuglenavne til sine kendte bogserier - Uglen, Spætten og Bekkasinen. Og forlagets logo er en trane.

These are tough moments for parent and child alike, often complicated by the fear that the misstep is also an indictment of our parenting.

An invaluable playbook for anxious parents everywhere, [this book] offers specific and unexpected advice about what to say, what not to say, and what to do to help children in eight categories of tense situations"--
?A breath of much-needed fresh air around a very charged subject.??Christiane Northrup, M.D., OB/GYN physician and author of the New York Times bestsellers Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom and The Wisdom of Menopause?Vernacchio's no-blame, no-shame approach will inspire parents to drop their fears, judgments, and inhibitions in order to help their kids navigate the teen years.??Publishers WeeklyUpdated to reflect societal changes over the past decade, an experienced educator's effective and responsible guide to sex education for parents and teens that promotes healthy knowledge, values, and positive sexuality.When it comes to talking to kids about sex, parents often don't know what to say. But our kids are talking?and seeing and listening and learning?about sex every day. Our kids know more about sex than we think they do. But our kids don't know as much about sex as they think they do.Complicating matters, sexuality education in schools is often locally regulated, leading to medically inaccurate or faith- and abstinence-based curriculums, and in a growing number of states even that meager education is under threat. Enter sexuality educator Al Vernacchio, a teacher for more than thirty years, who has been an advocate of a new category: sex-positive education. In For Goodness Sex, he offers a realistic approach to teaching kids about this basic biological function, with advice and answers that go far beyond just the act itself. After all, Vernacchio argues, without a broader understanding to offset the damaging perceptions of sex that pervade much of our culture, adolescents and teens are unprepared for the complex intellectual and emotional decisions surrounding sex and consent.Thoughtful and expansive, For Goodness Sex offers the tools and information adults and young people need to have important conversations about sexuality and to develop the safe and healthy values that will carry them through the rest of their lives.
