About this title

About the Author

At the age of 13, "Dr. J" made two vows. First, she vowed that she would never, ever forget what it was like to be a teenager. Second, that if she ever figured out tips for surviving teen years, she would pass them along to others. She has kept those vows, as a counselor in private practice, as a Radio Personality, as a magazine writer, and as the semi-sane mom of four teens. She and her family now live on a farm with plenty of animals-- but no chinchillas.
