A message from the author
19 year old (as of 2014) Monika Herrmann reflects on parenting in this unique book
I am a High School graduate and I wrote this book because I think the world of "advice on how to parent teenagers" is saturated with adults (who often have good advice), but no teens truly reflecting and providing legitimate advice on the subject.
If you're a parent of a teenager you should be proud. Proud of yourself and your teenager. The teen years are some of the hardest for both the teen and those around them. You should also congratulate yourself for looking into books or for advice on parenting, because it can be useful. I hope you find my book useful too.

"it also lets them know it's OK to fail - and that there's no pass-fail in parenting. It IS a continuum - and it's very astute to recognize that." (John A. Lynch)
