Synopsis

One of a series which follows the development of a young person's personality, this book deals with the dramatic and rich mixture of both positive and extremely turbulent experiences of life with a teenager. Changes are taking place in their sexuality, in the development of career choice, as well as preparation for public examinations. At times it seems as if there is another adult in the house. At other times, instead of ambition there is apathy and listlessness, when it seems there is no wish to take exams, leave school and enter a bigger world. Bad company can be sought after and, at times, all sense of trust between adolescents and parents can seem to disappear. The book looks at this challenging time of life in a way that will appeal not only to parents and family friends but also to adolescents themselves.
