A whole range of examples are provided throughout the book that touch on such changes. The book is full of quotes by young people and descriptions of parents' responses to situations, and offers practical information and guidance, taking account of the difficulties faced by both young people and their parents during an often turbulent time.
The book covers many aspects of young people's lives in the home and at school. These include puberty, sexuality, primary and secondary school, friendships, questions of identity, running into difficulties such as drinking, drugs, stealing and promiscuity, and life in the family, including sibling relationships and separation and divorce.
