Description
Description
This book invites teens to examine their lives and relationships. It begins by helping define what physical, emotional, spiritual, and sexual boundaries are. Stories of other teens illustrate how personal space and feelings can be either respected or violated in relationships with others.
The book's journal format encourages teens to reflect on and record feelings about their own relationships by answering for themselves. Do people respect your boundaries? Has anyone ever made you feel uncomfortable in some way? Have you ever felt manipulated, intimidated, or mistreated by someone you regarded as a friend? How can you get a friendship that has gone wrong back on track? Use Boundaries: A Guide for Teens to help assess relationships with family, friends, and classmates. Learn how to build close and satisfying friendships while guarding against being used or abused by others.

The book addresses issues my patients are facing and searching for the ways to cope with their struggles. It gives my patients answers to their dilemmas and nurtures their growth and development. A great teaching tool! - Sandra Shields
I read the adult version of this and it was profound for me. I wanted to make sure my daughter has strong boundaries. She is enjoying it, but doesn't love it. I know that it is laying an excellent foundation for her future. - Rachel, Amazon
This is a perfect book to use with teens. It is a very quick read and is journal-style. You could easily use this for discussion in groups or one-on-one. I purchased it as a gift for a friend. I liked it so much, I am purchasing two more for my own daughters. Well worth the small price. - Mom of 4, Amazon
