5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing!

3.0 out of 5 stars Much better if you don't have real problems but are a whiner

This review is from: Life Is Not Fair...: And Everything Else They Forget to Teach in School (Paperback)
There's a lot of good advice here, but Chapter 8, Blood is Thicker Than Water, weakens the whole package.

No, it's not.

For some, for many, it is. For the ones who need encouragement the most, it is not. Victims of incest, drug addicted or alcohol dependent families, those readers will feel even less valuable than they did before after reading this.

And since this book is supposed to be the realistic look at life, it is a huge omission to not acknowledge that many teens cannot count on their families.
