About this ebook
Clinical psychologist Lisa Damour says girls' erratic behavior is healthy and natural.
She assures parents that life with teenage girls doesn’t have to be a tangled mess. Girls normally grow on several developmental strands at the same time, though they grow at different rates. This is the reason why the teenage years are stressful for girls and their parents.
Teenage development has been studied by experts and there is a blueprint to their development. Understanding how girls think and behave will illuminate parents and enables them to guide their daughters well.
Untangled is a New York Times bestseller by Lisa Damour who heads the Center for Research on Girls at Laurel School. Psychology Today says reading the book is like having a therapist on call 24 hours a day. Damour’s stories and advice help parents avoid the “dangerous potholes.”
