Young people today enter puberty earlier than ever before and leave home later. The good news is that teenagers aren't impossible to live with, especially if parents adopt the common-sense strategies set out in this book.

Dr Michael Carr-Gregg is one of Australia's leading authorities on teenage behaviour. Surviving Adolescents is a clear and very down-to-earth manual, drawing on his wealth of experience and wisdom. It has advice on all the thorny issues that confront families with teenagers - sexuality, risky behaviours, laziness, school and study problems, and much more. And it is full of practical tips for everyday survival, including:

  • communicating effectively with young people
  • defusing family conflict
  • setting limits
  • keeping the stress of parenting at bay
  • avoiding common mistakes like fighting over things that don't matter

    Surviving Adolescents is the sensible, sanity-saving guide every household needs.

      Comments about Surviving Adolescents:

      I originally got the book because my husband was having a difficult time with my son who has just become an adolescent. The book was very helpful in understanding my son,s transformation to becoming a teenager. It was an easy book to read full of helpful, informative information. It armed me with information to pass on to my husband so he could understand his son better.
