This book examines many of the intricate issues that are present during adolescence and young adulthood. In Western culture, there are several shadow aspects to adolescence and young adulthood:Puberty, sexuality, sex, masturbation, drug experimentation, human trafficking, pressure to succeed, school shootings, and abusive adolescent relationships all exist and need to be discussed openly. This book mindfully attempts to explore these shadow and unwitnessed subjects and provides resources for young readers. In addition, this book provides firsthand accounts within each chapter to help support those who may be trying to navigate the process. It is important for parents or guardians to openly discuss these topics in a loving, accepting, unjudging manner. Sadly, the shadow aspects of American culture often triumph, and many adolescents and young adults do not get that opportunity.
