Publisher's Synopsis
Coping with the ups and downs and daily crises of adolescence can test the patience and wisdom of any parent. But what do you do when your child is acting in ways that go beyond what is "normal"? What do you do when your child seems to need professional help? "When Growing Up Hurts Too Much" is a practical guide to help parents recognize the warning signs that their child needs outside counselling. It helps parents distinguish between what is normal adolescent turmoil and what is abnormal, provides a step-by-step guide to the many kinds of assistance available and helps determine whether an adolescent needs professional help and how to find the appropriate therapist.
