Solid advice for adolents

Gave this as a gift for a friend with a son who is 15, and trying to figure out how to navigate early adulthood. Along with solid strategies for coping with stress, peer pressure, and societal expectations, the book does a good job explaining the value of journaling, while providing useful prompts to follow and write. Would recommend for anyone with teens/young adults for guidance or wisdom at their current stage of of development.

Great for older teens and early 20’s

I loved this. Very manageable for our youth to have basic skills or reinforce what parents say but goes in one ear and out the other. The author cover a lot but in summary they mentioned home skills, health, relationships, and making good choices.
