"Parenting adolescents is a challange under the best of circumstances. Our teens have to deal with seperating from their parents, developing their own uniques identities and value systems, learning to be accountable for their own choice and their emerging sexuality.. Because teens are in a transitional stage from childhood to adult and experience a great deal of normal anxiety, they are more vulnerable to choosing unproductive ways to deal with that anxiety. Effective intervention can ease that transition and help adolescents make more productive decisions."
