"Are you as tired as I am of books constantly telling you about doing your best to understand your parents, doing your homework, making curfew, getting a haircut, dropping that hemline, and blah, blah, blah?"

-- Jay McGraw, from the Introduction

I bought several copies of this book to use in the classroom and have been extremely satisfied. I work with at-risk youth who have been expelled from the district for a number of reasons, particularly drug use. The kids are looking for ways to self-medicate because they lack the skills to cope in healthy ways. This book uses common language and light humor to address the life skills necessary to create a healthy, happy and productive life, and I've found that most kids are making the much needed connections between how they're thinking, feeling and behaving. I read from it daily and use it to facilitate powerful conversations. I have also found the companion journal extremely valuable and highly recommend both!

This is an excellent book for ALL teens to read. Regardless of their life struggles, this book will help. I purchased this book for my 14 year old step daughter but even older teens can benefit from it. Jay McGraw, like his father, Dr. Phil McGraw, tells it like it is. I highly recommend this book for anyone under the age of 18.
