Understanding teenagers
'Humorous and informative observations...giving the reader confidence in handling adolescent behaviour.'
--Steve Chalke, GMTV presenter
'Enlightening and helpful...provides many pointers to those who wish to improve their understanding of teenagers and the worlds they inhabit.'
--Prof. Roger Murphy, Dean of Faculty of Education, University
Concerned about teen drug-taking, pregnancies, and eating disorders? Baffled about what drives many teenagers to such behaviour? Worried that 'it must be my fault'?
This brilliantly enlightening book argues that understanding the culture in which teenagers are growing up is the key to understanding why some inflict tragedy upon themselves or others. Nick Pollard, a specialist in sixth-form moral and religious education, provides adults with invaluable insights to enable them to open doors of communication with teenagers and begin to influence them for good.
