Troubled Teenagers and Parents

About Your Teen

Your teen does not come with a user's manual. And just for that reason, some parents treat them like damaged household goods that they no longer have any use for, and consequently pay them as much attention as you would to the broken down vaccuum cleaner lying around in the garage.
