Real Life Issues: Coping with Life

Product description:
 
Being a teenager is not easy: everything about you and your life is changing. Developing the body and mind of an adult and having to deal with responsibilities such as GCSEs and A levels can leave you reeling. At a time of such intense activity and transformation it is not surprising if you sometimes feel unable to cope.

 

Real Life Issues: Coping with Life offers a set of rules for tackling teenage stresses such as relationships with friends and families, sexual identity, self-esteem and plans for the future.

As well as real-life stories from young people, the book includes details on:

• The company you keep: friendship; groups & gangs; adults
• Self-regard: how to look after yourself
• What to do if you aren't coping well
• Organisations to contact for more information

 

Real Life Issues are self-help guides offering information and advice on a range of key issues that matter to teenagers. Each book defines the issue, probes the reader's experience of it and offers ways of understanding and coping with it. Written in a lively and accessible style, Real Life Issues aim to demystify the areas that teenagers find hard to talk about, providing honest facts, practical advice, inspirational quotes, positive reassurance, and guidance towards specialist help.
