 Thank you so much for the program held at the Z.J. Loussac Public Library. I was so delighted that it was well attended. Obviously there are many parents who are equally perplexed by their teens! I went home and shared with my husband the 5 points and have found myself chanting the mantra "Don't take it personally...remain calm," in my daily life. Thank you for sharing your time, enthusiasm and expertise with our community. Sincerely, Sherri Douglas Youth Services Coordinator Anchorage Municipal Libraries "This is a brilliant, genuine, yet satisfying and sophisticated book that shows the importance of recognition and support from caring adults, while at the same time (helping teens gain needed) autonomy and self-guidance. I recommend this book to anyone who is or is planning to raise a child." Shmir Corzine, Lions-Quest Programs, Lions Foundation |
