Parenting high schoolers is scary, if not downright terrifying. If you are not scared, you should be. Did you ever wish there was a book that could walk you and your child through a proven set of steps to get through a successful high school journey? This book is not a theoretical academic thesis. This book is a back to the basics, in the trenches, block and tackle practical guide, based on interviews with hundreds of parents, teachers, and students; and over a decade of experience helping parents create a plethora of options for their children.

Or worse, is your child not living up to their potential? Are you concerned their young adult foundation isn't as solid as it should be?
