n this landmark eight-year study of 4,000 teens from 25 states, acclaimed researcher Richard M. Lerner sets the record straight about today’s teenagers. With real-life anecdotes and smart, cutting-edge science, The Good Teen defies current societal thinking: teens are not inherently difficult or deficient, nor are the teen years by necessity ones of storm and stress; teens are not problems to be fixed, but resources to be developed.
