I have read the original BOUNDARIES book by Henry Cloud and John Townsend, and I thought this book would be helpful in applying those truths to my relationship with my teenager. I am glad I got this book. It is good to see things from the perspective of the relationship with my teen and how to give her the boundaries - and the freedoms - she needs in the proper proportions. Sometimes as parents we overcompensate because of guilt in one area with our teens by letting down the barriers (boundaries) in another area because we think they will balance out, but we are not doing justice to our teens when we do this. They need good, healthy, balanced structure and boundaries, and this book gives practical insight and applications for how to do that successfully. I recommend this book to any parent of a teenager.Read full review

This is a currently written book. It is very helpful and insightful. It does not minimize the struggle or give pat answers. However, there is alot to be gained here for these teenage years. I love how it is edited. You can go to the back to the issues that are a crisis and then come back and read the entire book. I have found this to be extremely helpful.
I love, love, love this book!!!!! I will be getting one as a gift for all my friends with teenagers!
The book was like new and my wife can't stop making me read parts of it. I'm happy with the service provided by half.com and the vender from whom I purchised it from.
