Product Description
WARNING: This is not just another run-of-the-mill guide for parents and teachers of teens. As the title suggests, it's the "Real Deal," the secret questions that adolescents discuss among themselves, often excluding those of us who are supposed to help them reach maturity. This book doesn't pull punches; it's sometimes politically incorrect and controversial... but it is also grounded in real life, meticulously documented by thousands of interviews with teenagers across America who want tough questions answered truthfully by their families and mentors. Read at your own risk. It may make you squirm, it may force you to re-evaluate your own past... but opens doors to more open and honest communication with the teenagers in your life.
From the Publisher
Imagine a streetwise Rabbi who is equally comfortable quoting from the Talmud, the rapper Coolio, the National Survey of Families and Households, Baba Kamma and Newsweek. He is your personal `spy' into the secret world of teens, who talks their language -- and yours: Yehuda Fine.
