Despite their flocking to social networking sites in unprecedented numbers, research confirms that adolescents continue to be influenced primarily by their families rather than their peers and other social contexts. Consequently, the family unit remains a vital setting for understanding and intervening with youth. Synthesizing important findings from the literature on family science and such related fields as psychology, sociology, social work, and public health, Families with Adolescents focuses a unique panoramic lens on the study of adolescent development.
This concise volume offers a clear blueprint for more consistently improved practice, emphasizing family process and structure instead of individual developmental stages. Its chapters deftly summarize the recent knowledge base across the mental health and social services disciplines, illustrating family concerns and theoretical perspectives coupled with real-world vignettes and making cogent use of family assessment measures.
Families with Adolescents is an essential resource for researchers and graduate students as well as mental health therapists in clinical child and developmental psychology, family studies, human development, sociology, social work, and education.

Stephen M. Gavazzi, Ph.D., is Professor, Department of Human Development and Family Science at The Ohio State University, and Lead Director of the OSU Center for Family Research. During the past 20 years at Ohio State, Dr. Gavazzi has established a research program that identifies the impact of family dynamics on youth development, psychopathology, and problem behavior. This work has been supported by more than $4 million in grants from a wide variety of federal, state, and private sources. He also is a trained Family Therapist, thus bringing an applied clinical perspective to his work. Dr. Gavazzi has been involved in the development and evaluation of a number of family-based programming efforts, including a multifamily psychoeducational group for families containing children with mood disorders, as well as a strength-based program for families who have adolescents involved in some aspect of the juvenile court. Most recently, he has been involved in the development of the Global Risk Assessment Device, a web-based instrument designed to generate information that assists professionals in making appropriate service referrals for at-risk youth and their families.

"Families and Adolescents is a major accomplishment. It's uncommon for a book to offer immediate relevance for clinical and research audiences, but that's just what Professor Gavazzi has done in this crisply written and comprehensive work. Scientists will benefit from the accurate and complete review of core topics in the adolescent development and developmental psychopathology areas, and therapists will be enriched by the book's fair, thorough and clearly organized summaries of the fundamental therapeutic issues of our day. The interconnections between the theoretical, the empirical and the clinical domains of the adolescent and family specialties are understood and described clearly, and this feature, among others, will establish the book as an exemplary and unique contribution."

"At last, a much needed book, destined to be a classic, has been written by Dr. Stephen Gavazzi that clearly establishes how the context of families continues to matter for young people during the adolescent years. An amazing accomplishment of Families with Adolescents is that it covers such a vast range of theoretical, empirical and application issues very efficiently in giving the reader a thorough understanding of this complex topic from many vantage points. It does so by reviewing and integrating the best current scholarship about 1) family science and developmental theories, 2) the most prominent research on family processes and adolescent development, as well as 3) some of the best work on prevention and intervention strategies for families with adolescent members. Although the book provides extensive knowledge about adolescents, Professor Gavazzi makes clear that the primary focus of the book is to provide an interdisciplinary understanding of the family context during the time when adolescents are shaping many of the challenges faced by families. The focus of the book, therefore, is on family processes, family structure, family conflict, and family problem solving, as well as related interactions within and among different dyadic relationships within the family (e.g., the parent-adolescent, interparental, and sibling subsystems). Significant attention is devoted to how these dimensions of the family system may contribute in either positive or negative ways to adolescent delinquency, mental health, substance use, sexual activity, education, and social competence. This book focuses on these issues with a thoughtful review of the key empirical literature found in prominent publication sources on families with adolescents conducted over the last fifteen years. When Gavazzi turns to the issue of application, he focuses on family-based work that targets such problem behaviors as adolescent delinquency, mental health, and substance abuse. Other family-based interventions deal with multiple problem behaviors, while the family prevention chapter focuses on family strengthening strategies and those approaches that target families that are at risk. Families with Adolescents is the first book of its kind to review, analyze and integrate theory, research, and practice about families and adolescents so comprehensively. It is a landmark publication that scholars, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates from many social science fields will find invaluable for understanding the challenges and dynamics of families during this fascinating phase of the life course."

"Designed to guide students and professionals in using the "triple threat" of current theory, research, and preventions/interventions in professional practice and, this book is outstanding for inaugurating students into and updating practioners in the scholarship and programs for families with adolescents. This book moves beyond traditional approaches by integrating ideas from prominent theoretical foundations (family developmental, family systems, ecological, attachment, and social learning), highlighting research in the past 15 years on overall family systems and subsystems with adolescents (mother-youth, father-youth, mother-father-youth, siblings), families and adolescent outcomes, and providing both general guidelines and specific examples of family programs to serve as a foundation for prevention and intervention. In sum, this is an exciting resource that challenges readers to maximize the synergies of integrating contributions from theory, current research, and practice in prevention, intervention, and scholarship to promote adaptation in families with adolescents."

“The book is organized into five parts. … The literature reviewed in this book provides considerable evidence for the importance of family relationships in adolescent development. … Readers can pursue topics of interest in greater depth by following leads provided in the extensive reference list. Graduate students seeking research topics and clinicians interested in an update of the empirical literature on families with adolescents will also find value in this book … .” (Joseph A. Micucci, PsycCRITIQUES, Vol. 56 (32), August, 2011)
“Families with Adolescents: Bridging the Gap Between Theory, Research, and Practice is one of several books that have been recently published that focus on adolescents within the family. … Families with Adolescents achieves its objective in a clear, yet concise, manner. … Families with Adolescents offers a comprehensive look at a specific field of study and would be an important addition to a growing library of scholarly work that is focused on adolescents and their families.” (Larry F. Forthun, Journal of Youth Adolescence, Vol. 40, 2011)

Relationships with parents and families: why teenagers need them
Teenagers need love and support from parents at a time when lots of other things in their lives are changing. You can keep your relationship with your teenage child strong through ordinary, everyday activities.
Many people think that families become less important to children as they move into the teenage years. But your child needs your family and the support it offers as much as she did when she was younger.
It’s true that family relationships change during adolescence. When your child was young, your role was to nurture and guide him. Now you might be finding that your relationship with your child is becoming more equal.
Most young people and their families have some ups and downs during these years, but things usually improve by late adolescence as children become more mature. And family relationships tend to stay strong right through.
For teenagers, parents and families are a source of care and emotional support. Families give teenagers practical, financial and material help. And most teenagers still want to spend time with their families, sharing ideas and having fun.
It’s normal for teenagers to be moody or seem uncommunicative, but they still need you. Your child still loves you and wants you to be involved in her life, even though at times her attitude, behaviour or body language might seem to say she doesn’t.
Family is the most important thing to me. They’re my own support system. Everybody thinks friends are more important, but they’re not. Friends are great, but they’ll come and go. Family is always there.
– Brianna, teenager
In this video, teens talk about relationships with parents. They talk about some issues that can cause tension between teenagers and parents: homework, sibling fights, boundaries and trust. Some teenagers feel their parents need to show more trust and give them more independence, but they also know that parents are mostly just concerned for their safety.
Adolescence can be a difficult time – your child is going through rapid physical changes as well as emotional ups and downs. Young people aren’t always sure where they fit, and they’re still trying to work it out. Adolescence can also be a time when peer influences and relationships can cause you and your child some stress.
Supporting each other can be vital to getting through these challenges.
During this time your family is still a secure emotional base where your child feels loved and accepted, no matter what’s going on in the rest of his life. Your family can build and support your child’s confidence, self-belief, optimism and identity.
When your family sets rules, boundaries and standards of behaviour, you give your child a sense of consistency and predictability.
And believe it or not, your life experiences and knowledge can be really useful to your child – she just might not always want you to know that!
Supportive and close family relationships protect your child from risky behaviour like alcohol and other drug use, and problems like depression. Your support and interest in what your child is doing at school can boost his desire to do well academically too.
Strong family relationships can go a long way towards helping your child grow into a well-adjusted, considerate and caring adult.
The ordinary, everyday things that families do together can help  build and sustain strong relationships with teenagers. These tips might help you and your family.
Family meals
Regular family meals are a great chance for everyone to chat about their day, or about interesting stuff that’s going on or coming up. If you encourage everyone to have a say, no-one will feel they’re being put on the spot to talk. Also, many families find that meals are more enjoyable when the TV isn’t invited and when mobile phones and tablets are switched off!
Family outings
Try setting aside time for fun family outings – you could all take turns choosing activities. A relaxing holiday or weekend away together as a family can also build togetherness. Our article on teenagers and free time has more ideas for things you can do as a family.
One-on-one time
One-on-one time with your child gives you the chance to stay connected and enjoy each other’s company. It can also be a chance to share thoughts and feelings. If you can, try to find opportunities for each parent to have this time with your child.
Celebrate your child’s accomplishments
Celebrating your child’s accomplishments, sharing his disappointments, and supporting his hobbies helps your child know you’re interested in him. You don’t have to make a big deal of this – sometimes it’s just a matter of showing up to watch your child play sport or music, or giving him a lift to extracurricular  activities.
Family traditions
Family traditions, routines and rituals can help you and your child set aside regular dates and special times. For example, you might have a movie night together, a favourite meal or cooking session on a particular night, a family games afternoon or an evening walk together.
Household responsibilities
Agreed household responsibilities give children and teenagers the sense that they’re making an important contribution to family life. These could be things like chores, shopping or helping older or younger members of the family.
Family rules
Agreed-on rules, limits and consequences give teenagers a sense of security, structure and predictability. They help your child know what standards apply in your family, and what will happen if she  pushes the boundaries.
Family meetings
Family meetings can help to solve problems. They give everyone a chance to be heard and be part of working out a solution.
Extra support
If you feel that your family really isn’t connecting, you might find a family counsellor or other family support service helpful.
This short video demonstration shows how family meetings can help you and your children connect, plan activities and catch up on what’s going on for everyone. Family meetings are a practical way to build relationships.
