Description
Why don't enough people care about kids and teens? Nationally-respected family and divorce Mediator Matthew House, J.D. takes a sardonic, pull-no-punches look at how NOT serious America is about doing what's right for kids and teens.
Mediator Matthew delivers a convincing message to groups seemingly on different planets. His youth relates to kids and teens, while his law degree and experience allow adults to regard him with the same credibility that the media affords him with his numerous radio and television appearances.
With the wry wit and deliberate timing of a stand-up comedian and the education of an accomplished professional, Mediator Matthew presents his often-humorous (but true) stories and strategies for parents and teens and pre-teens. He frequently ad-libs based on audience participation and never hesitates to speak frankly, typically ending a story with a bewildered look and his trademark line, “You’ve got to be kidding me!”
Mediator Matthew combines real-world experience with the credibility of authoring a motivational book for teenagers and offering dozens of live interviews on all three major TV networks and numerous radio shows, with repeat appearances on opposite coasts, before he turned 30.
Mediator Matthew’s second book, You’ve Got To Be Kidding Me!, and the accompanying tour, is a pull-no-punches critique of pitfalls in families, coupled with strategies. His audience will leave inspired to make this generation the first that makes kids, teens and families the top priority. Mediator Matthew brings the direct, outspoken style that has made him an agent of change.
Parents and teens alike will enjoy and learn from Mediator Matthew's often-comedic stories that all ask the same question: Why don't enough people care about kids and teens?
