Synopsis

The world of teen romance is sometimes chaotic and often times confusing. What do you say when your 13-year-old asks, "How can I make a guy go out with me?" How do you respond to a 17-year-old who says she's in love?What do you do with a daughter who gets involved in endless dating and break-ups that leave her an emotional wreck? The answers, just like dating relationships, aren't always easy. Parents are urged to sit down and talk seriously with their daughters about the purpose of dating and to create family dating rules. Sample activities to help get the conversation started are included. Sprinkled throughout the book are real-life dating stories, many silly, some scary but all serve to remind parents that dating is a valuable experience that shouldn't be denied or trivialised.
