Teenagers are tough and anyone who has their own needs help. Here it is: a witty, enjoyable and genuinely helpful guide that breaks the mould.

Get Out Of My Life offers practical alternatives to anger, nagging and frustration, and specific recommendations for developing better relationships with even the most difficult teenagers. This is the best survival manual for parents who find themselves marooned among volatile and incomprehensible aliens on Planet Teen. It looks at all the difficult issues of bringing up teenagers - school, sex, drugs and even suicide.

I didn't think I'd enjoy this book. It was recommended by a friend when I told her about one of my daughters tantrums. The book is entertaining and informative. I have changed tack and I've noticed my daughters confusion when things haven't gone as she thought a confrontation would. Worth a listen, you've nothing to lose.

Some chapters written about my child

I found the book helpful, enjoyable, illuminating and hopeful.
I have passed it on to friends, colleagues and clients as many people struggle to understand what is happening in adolescence and worry about their role as parents.

Great book for everyone

I enjoyed listening to this and it does give some perspective to parents of teens. But it is still very difficult to live a life with someone who constantly tries to be mean and do best to p*ss off parents. I do hope it will pass and that there is a relationship left by that time….

Good book but but but

Reading the book through the stories as if conversations of parent Teenager was a good way to connect and relate to Teenager's own voice and they way they think, my only issue was the voices and conversations felt to me of a daughter and Mother which is useful if you are a Mum and have a daughter. Personally I have a son I didn't find a connection with them half as much. Girls and boys have different issues so If your a Dad with a son I would try to look for a book the concentrates more on Father / Son as you will likely get more out of it

Good for Daughter /Morher

I've got two teenage girls and quite a lot of what this author says is spot on. It's like she's been a fly on the wall in my house! However (admittedly, I'm not all the way though yet) I'm wanting to read about what parents DO with such things as nastiness from groups/and the whole social dynamics of when girls are left out of things and there's an undertone of meanness of girls who're "meant" to be friends. That's what's happening with one of my daughters and it's great to hear that that kind of thing does go on but if you've got the child who that's aimed at, then it'd be nice to hear how to manage it (and support your child) whilst it's happening. So, in that sense, it's not really telling me anything ...

Ok, but...
