Synopsis: If life with your teen has become a battleground, it's time to take action. This empathic book shows how. Trusted psychologists who have worked with thousands of families give you the tools you need to overcome defiance and get teen behavior back on track.

Vivid stories and answers to frequently asked questions help you put the techniques into action.
