What Smart Teenagers Know...about Dating, Relationships and Sex

I never thought someone would understand completely how I feel about realtionships! This book helped me so much, I know so much more about myself now and my boyfriend has started reading it now too.

I found this book to be fun, yet to the point. If you have a teenager in your life, you will want to give them a copy -- it could be a life-saver for them, and you'll rest easier knowing they have accurate information. Deb's voice is one you can trust. The book seems especially helpful for parents with teens who don't want to have a heart-to-heart talk with them about the facts of life. Or for those who do and just want a primer before the talk... Our kids are inheriting a handful with this world we're passing on... Let's give them all the help that we can in navigating the myriad of choices they face...

I really enjoyed this book. Not only am I convincing my 16-year-old sister to read it (she's a classic "drama queen")but I was able to extract some helpful relationship advice for myself and Im 24!

I wanted a book for my 13 year old grandson as he heads into the girls-phase of his life. I was impressed enough with this book that I read the whole thing myself, and have purchased several copies for friends and a colleague to give to their teens or grandchildren. The book is down to earth and sensible. Has all the tips and pointers I wish I had known about 45 years ago! There are no pictures or drawings of anatomy, so this isn't a primer for "where do babies come from," but has the more important information about emotions, social issues, and how to get through the dating scene without the usual bumps that teens encounter.
