Grow Up America! is a one-stop-shopping guide to happy, responsible living. It tackles everyday life--love, political correctness, volunteerism, competance, self-esteem and more--from a provocative, and ruthlessly honest, point of view. Grow Up America! attacks the tired cliches and excuses forced upon us by the media and government, and helps the reader to see that happiness and satisfaction come from taking responsibility for your own life, loves and happiness.
