Few parents of teenagers escape unscathed. Living with adolescents brings the best of us to our knees. It's easy to feel like a giant parenting failure most of the time. When our lovely children turn into malcontents, things tend to come apart at the seams: families, marriages, healthy self-identities. If you find yourself engaging in elaborate fantasies- like running away to join the circus, a convent, or a magical place where there is no laundry on the floor and no emails about missing homework-you are not alone. Here is a sassy little book to help you gain a fresh (and funny!) perspective on the typical but terrible ways your children are likely to terrorize you for a few years. Have hope! It's painful and it feels real personal, but it is not permanent. It really is just a phase.
