Assume Crash Position But Enjoy the Ride

This book is the journal of parents with children in middle school. Since most parents really only get to see the reality show of adolescence in their own home, they can too easily think they've been bad parents or somehow blown it with their kids. This book helps parents to realize the trauma is just the normal course of adolescence, and that's it's often just a rough time of transition for kids and a harsh time of adjustment for parents. In this book, you'll get the sense that kids are just kids, and parents need to hold their course through the metamorphosis that we now call Middle School.
