Pragmatic in its approach, the book examines ways for parents to build more harmonious relationships with their teenager, providing an overview of adolescence and an in-depth look at different approaches towards parenting teens. Solutions are offered to common sources of conflict and a broad range of issues is discussed, from depression, self-esteem and communication to sibling rivalry and parental break-up. Fuller's comments are insightful, his approach is straightforward and his style engaging. Combined, this makes Raising Real People the ideal parent's guide to adolescence.
