If one of these teens is yours, you've likely lived through years of conflicting advice and quick fixes that don't last.

6. Techniques to solve teenagers' extreme emotional problems (anxiety, depression, trauma, self-harm, threats of suicide, grief, self-harm, etc.)
7. Troubleshooting and dress rehearsals
8. Reclaiming love between you and your teenager Clear and practical, with hundreds of real-life solutions from families who have faced these same challenges, this book gives parents the tools they need to get their teen--and their family--back on track quickly.
