Describes some of the conflicts common in teen experience and their causes, and provides advice on finding alternatives other than the extremes of continuing to fight or surrendering.

Reviews

Gr 7-10-While acknowledging the legitimacy of angry feelings, this book offers readers strategies for dealing nonviolently with peers, parents, teachers, and others. There is a general discussion of the kinds of conflict young people often confront, anecdotes that provide examples of conflict situations, and suggestions for resolving them. The volume includes a discussion of peer mediation. Black-and-white photographs enhance the text. The books and pamphlets in "Further Reading" are geared mainly to adults, thus emphasizing the paucity of material for teens. Yet, despite the respectful, neutral tone and the admirable and teen-friendly content, the main challenge here will be in getting the intended audience to read this book, for it is visually unappealing and unlikely to be selected voluntarily. Nevertheless, it should be available as a resource. In fact, teachers and parents might do well to read it, too.
