Reviews

The major issues of adolescent parenting are covered here: structure, trust and freedom, expectations, consequences, communication, friends, alcohol and drugs, romance and sexuality, divorce, depression, and how to interpret the normal and abnormal features of the teen years. Both the tone and content are respectful of the turbulence teenagers and parents experience during these years. Riera's approach is uncommonly reasonable, and he articulates it with down-to-earth language. His kind and earnest speaking style will be welcomed by parents who need the information but don't want to feel any more incompetent or guilty than they already do about their parenting. T.W.
