Teenagers : the agony, the ecstasy, the answers

Ever felt you need to turn to a whole team of advisers for help in bringing up your wayward children?

From psychiatrists to cooks, from laundry maids to substance abuse counsellors?

Then this book, an easy pick-up-and-read guide to teenagers - and how to live happily with them, is aimed at you.

By interviewing over 40 parents and their offspring, and based on up-to-the-minute medical and social facts, the authors have produced a handbook that highlights areas of conflict and advises on how to get things right.

For both parents who want to get maximum enjoyment out of life with their teenagers and for teenagers to give to their parents, this book seeks to cover everything you want to know about friendships, drugs, sex, bullying, grief, eating disorders and general teenage living.
