"With wit and wisdom, Peter [Marshall] gives parents practical, useful and thoughtful advice to help their teenagers grow into responsible, resourceful, and resilient people who treat themselves and others with dignity and regard."
-Barbara Coloroso, educator and author
Everyone troubled by teens of their own will find consolation in this book. Dr. Peter Marshall, child psychologist, father of five and former teenager, provides an abundance of practical information, advice and observations on all walks of adolescent and pre-adolescent life.

- Ways to support and strengthen self-esteem
- Various parenting styles, such as authoritarian, permissive, democratic and management by guilt
- The intense rate of change in teens' lives

- Ways to encourage a healthy lifestyle, to promote fitness and to deal with the growing epidemic of obesity
- Helping teens find constructive ways to channel their concerns about the environment
