| "Are you as tired as I am of books continuously telling you the same old Brady Bunch, Beaver Cleaver, goody-two-shoes BS concerning doing your excellent to comprehend your parents, doing your homework, making curfew, getting a haircut, dropping this hemline, and blah blah blah?" So inquires Jay McGraw, son of bestselling author Phillip C. McGraw, in the introduction to the younger, hipper version of his father's Life Strategies. This funny, straightforward guide helps teens steer rather than drift in life, dealing honestly together with topics from peer pressure to TV addiction together with the underlying mantra, "Don't like it? Modify it." Divided into the same 10 "Life Laws" this are in his father's book (from "We educate people how to treat us" to "There is power in forgiveness"), McGraw urges teens to get control of their lives at each turn. This said, he doesn't expect any young person to respond to the way his father's book is written, so he translates "People do what works" to "The truth concerning why you can act so weird" and "Life rewards action" to "What are you waiting for? Get it in equipment!" He demands this his readers ask themselves hard questions concerning missed opportunities, perceptions, self-sabotage, and personal shortcomings so they can figure out what's not working and fix it. Why? So this they can turn dreams into goals--together with specific timelines and strategies. There's no doubt this the book has the enthusiastic pounding zeal of an aerobics instructor. But it makes a lot of sense, and if a teen took even a few of these lessons to heart, he or she would be extra in control than much adults. (Ages 13 and older) |

| **TEEN READER**BEST BOOK I EVER READ! It is truely AMAZING 2006-05-13 |
| By Sammi (WA, USA) |
I have to say reading the comment above made me pretty sad. This book was not sending mixed messages and it is definately NOT telling you to be popular and that your parents will only love you more if you get good grades. This book is simply about helping yourself become more of what you want and getting more out of the life you were delt with. It makes me so sad to hear bad things about this book becuase that review probably stopped someone from buying this amazing book.
This book helped me through the toughest times in my life, it works with you and helps you see what is behind the "my life is perfect" mask that so many teens have. Amazing book, it changed who I am and how I act. For instance, in one chapter it talks about how in arguments if you just talk even if someone is yelling at you, you are not being passive, but in turn arguments turn into talks a lot more often. So as a test i followed this advice becuase i had just moved in with a step-sister my own age and we were not getting along very well. Now, that we stopped fighting (and i give all credit to this book) we are able to talk about what is bothering us and not fight. We couldnt be closer now. And that is exactally the reason i would recommend this book to ANYONE, it helps with topics like that without barking orders or telling you what you need to do or you suck as was stated above. This is an EXCELLENT book. BEST BOOK I EVER READ!!!!! |
| shut up! 2005-11-04 |
| By selena neumann (Florida, Orlando) |
| well.. of course a person like me would have to read what people though before i wrote what i thought! i think that the people that don't like this book need help! why in the world would rich people not have problems!! and there is way more to these people than you think!! just because some of you are shallow and can't use your imagination and have fun with some of the jokes he throws at you doesn't mean you need to get mad!! grow up! there are more people who know that that book was good and i happen to believe strongly in what he wrote!! yes i have money but no i don't have the perfect life promise!! so just because a person has money does not make them unknowledgeable about real life! so think to yourself again maybe you just need to read between the lines or maybe your life was to perfect but i know that this really helped me and i am doing some of the things that he said and it has helped me alot through everything i have been through!! |
| What About Multi-Talented Teens? 2005-07-07 |
| By Margaret Lobenstine (Central Massachusetts USA) |
| It is so great that someone who has grown up with Dr. Phil for a father feels ready to share wisdom from his perspective with teens like himself. I found it much more effective than most books written by adults (who were teens in such different times!) There's one issue teens struggle with, however, that didn't get the attention it deserved: what to do when you love lots of different things but your guidance counselor and parents say you'll eventually have to pick just one. ... |
