Un Wise:
Gary Ezzo is not qualified to give this advice. He has been discredited over and over, and dropped by his publishser. He continues to publish these on his own. Look up Gary Ezzo on the internet for the critiques of this material. He discourages talking to your teens about sex, right up to their wedding day.
I now understand my teen!:
On Becoming Teenwise is an excellent book for parents who have children ages 13 through 19, and the book gives one an excellent direction as to how your younger adolescent SHOULD go! A test is given to the parent early in the book and reveals what is lacking in your relationship with him/her as well as what the parent has done right so far in upbringing the child. Many suggestions are offered to remedy, for instance, a lack of responsibility in doing chores, or being able to meet a curfew.
