Get Out of My Life, but First Could You Drive Me & Cheryl to the Mall

A Parent's Guide to the New Teenager, Revised and Updated

In this revised and updated edition of his best-selling guide to raising adolescents, Dr. Anthony E. Wolf tackles the changes of the past decade with the same wit and compassion of the original. Today's teenagers navigate a faster, less clearly anchored world, and Dr. Wolf's revisions include a new chapter about the Internet, a significantly modified section on drugs and drinking, and an added piece on gay teenagers. This new edition gives bewildered parents a road map to the rocky and ever-changing terrain of contemporary adolescence.
