Synopsis

Difficult Teens: A Parent's Guide for Coping, by Robert J. Meadows, Ph.D., and Joan H. Blacher, Ph.D., is the outcome of a unique collaboration between a criminal justice specialist and former LAPD officer (Meadows) and a licensed marriage, family therapist and former school psychologist (Blacher). Because of their combined experinces in all aspects of teen behavior and the fact that they have been parents of teens, they address the following issues with authority, compassion, and understanding:

-why teens behave the way they do; actual case studies
-the defiant teen's impact on the family
-how to keep aggression from escalating into violence
-how to work with your child's school
-how to deal with specific problems
-the juvenile justice system and important legal issues
-extensive list of common drug types and their effects
-resources for the teen, the parent, and the family
