A new series to help parents manage the complex years of living with the 'volatile and incomprehensible aliens on Planet Teen'

"Get Out Of My Life" offers practical alternatives to anger, nagging and frustration, and specific recommendations for developing better relationships with even the most difficult teenagers.
