A review by mjenae
The Five Love Languages of Teenagers by Gary Chapman
4.5
Okay, so for some reason I didn't catch on that this was a parenting book. Unobservant much? I'd say. But I'm glad I read it. I now have a much better understanding of the love languages. (And besides, parenting books are intriguing. It's fun to look at them from the other side of the equation.)
I've come away:
• More knowledgeable about Chapman’s theories.
• Validated, strangely. This guy gets it. I agreed with almost everything he said.
• Convinced that one's primary love language does not change. He explained this aspect and answered many of my other questions as well.
• Eager to read the other books in his love language series.
(Something worth noting:
I know this isn't such a big thing, but the author used “she” as a general pronoun just as much as “he,” and it was kind of nice. It was very minor, and according to grammar textbooks not even correct, but I noticed and appreciated it.)
