Finding the Real Me by Ron Herron, Val J. Peter.
Teenagers are anxious to be independent and make their own decisions.
However, parents, teachers, and other adults often believe rules, supervision, and guidance are still required. It begins by describing how to start liking the self and trusting one's own opinions and feelings. The book also reflects on the importance of taking a critical look at the world, including the influences of pop culture, parents, and peers. Ron Herron is director of the Writing Division at Boys Town. Val J. Peter, J.C.D.,S.T.D., is executive director of Boys Town, the legendary home for troubled youth.
