This is an excellent book about the dangers adolescents face in today's world particulary in the school setting, and how parents, teachers, and othe adults can help make maturing a safer and healthier experience for young people.
Reading this again, my own copy this time and marking it up to note the significant comments which are many.
Excellent Book For Schools: I think that Garbarino's latest book accurately tells what students go through in high school and and its effects on some people. With school-shootings such as Columbine happening, I think that this book is definitely on the must-read list.
