Kevin Leman provides a great resource for parents of teens. Its chapter summaries, the twenty rules parents must know and the Teenager's Ten Commandments to Parents are useful quick-read reminders for reference even after reading the book. Dr. Leman presents the material with humor and insight using real experiences from his life and professional practice. Parents will feel strengthened by reading this book.
