商品簡介
Armed with current imaging tools, neuroscientists have discovered that teenagers don't think or act like adults because their brains actually function in a different way. Feinstein (Augustana College) combines research on the developing adolescent brain with realistic anecdotes to offer parents new insight on why their adolescents behave the way they do. She outlines general tactics that work or don't work, and explains why, then gives practical advice on coping with specific social, emotional, physical, and educational issues most families with adolescents face. A final chapter looks at problems of at-risk teens, such as cutting and addiction. Annotation c2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
