Dater's Ed is one of the most innovative and creative parenting books I have ever had the pleasure of reading. It makes perfect sense. Lisa Jander does a great job blending the reality of driver's ed and the stark reality that we spend little or no time teaching our kids how to date. EKK. Fun read. Wish I had it years ago.

This book was both refreshing and fresh. A new and compelling how-to for parents of teens entering the dating world. A great combination of humor and practical advice. Thanks Lisa, for helping us to navigate the dating maze of children/emerging adults. A great tool for talking with your teen.
