BUY NOW
Whew! I feel like I have been through a whirlwind. One would think that during a stay at home lockdown I would get bored. Frankly, no! I have kept myself busy with writing, editing, creating art, and doing mindless activities. I did watch a Pink Floyd and Cher concert.


However, what are all of the teenagers up to these days

They may be used to the internet and doing things online, but they are not used to staying at home. This pandemic has to be hard on them because they are grounded so to speak. With that, they have feelings and questions. Why not spend this valuable time communicating with your teen or for that matter, all children. There is no time like the present to spend quality time with your teen.


For some parents the thought of have a heart-to-heart teen sounds frightful. Where do I begin? Today's author, Bukky Ekine-Ogunlana, and her book, "Life Strategies for Teenagers: Positive Parenting Tips and Understanding Teens for Better Communication and Happy Family" can help you out. Take a look.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Bukky Ekine-Ogunlana is a loving wife, mother of teens, teacher, lecturer and #1 amazon best-selling author. She attended the University of Lagos and attained her first degree in Estate Management, following this with a master's degree in Management and Education from the University of Greenwich UK, simply for the sheer passion and love she has for children.

As well as her skills in teaching and lecturing for many years now, Bukky has a passion for positive parenting and family values and has been involved in coaching, mentoring, tutoring and leadership training for young people for much of that time.

She is co-founder of https://www.thechildrenseducationcentre.co.uk/ - TCEC (6-16), a professional tutoring centre which forms part of The TCEC Group that focuses on helping children between the ages of 6 and 16 to Catch Up and Get Ahead.

Now, using the skills she has developed over the years of helping parents and children at work and in the home, Bukky is an author, with a growing range of titles and a rapidly expanding army of readers and she is hoping that her dream to help even more people will be possible by reaching out to a much wider audience with her books. Some of her titles, available on Amazon are:

The Fear of the Lord: How God's Honour Guarantees Your Peace; a book in the Christian vein examining how we can live our lives as true Christians, 101 Tips For Helping Your Child's Learning and 101 Tips For Developing Your Children are both in the education field and have both previously provided Bukky with Amazon Best Sellers.

Other books in her portfolio deal with coping strategies for teenagers, development of teens and young adults, financial tips for kids and healthy habits they can adopt.

In her spare time, Bukky devotes much of it to her loving family and people. She lives in Essex with her husband and their 3 lovely children and enjoys reading and swimming when she gets time away from her first passion of serving children and their parents. She hopes to continue to be able to help many more others through her work and books for a long time to come.
