Zombies are noy just found in horror movies, sometimes they're lying on your living room couch. These are undead adolescents whose psychological and social development have come to a screeching halt. Torn by their yearning for freedom and their fear of surviving the outside world, they have stalled in their maturity, motivation, and purpose in life. Hijacked by a helplessness and fear of responsibility. Parents often feel ill-equipped to love, support, and guide their teens - especially when they find themselves facing personal mid-life crisis, battling some of the same struggles they've witnessed in their kids.
In my Teenage Zombie board-certified psychiatrist and medical doctor David L. Henderson explains the parts of a teenage zombie (brain, heart, and spirit), how teenagers got into this undead state, and how to resurrect them back to life. Using real-life examples of families he has counselled, he describes both their physical and psychological characteristics and offers practical suggestions on how to deal with, and in many cases avoid, having an undead adolescent in your home.
