Six fictitious teens of varied backgrounds discuss problems facing high schoolers, including alcohol, drugs, sex, eating disorders and self-mutilation. The book includes warning signs for teens to notice if they suspect their friends are headed down a dangerous path, as well as the side-effects (both short- and long-term) of destructive behavior. The book is written in transcript form, often in the language of teens. (800) 328-9000, http://www.hazelden.org.
