I bought this book as a 'guide' to the brain of a teenager. Since junior will officially become one after school holidays, I thought it might be a good buy. Good reviews, so... maybe it'll give me some insight in what will come in the next 13 years :-)
And, maybe also in retrospect, find out why things went as the went in my puberty. Look forward to read it!

I liked this book a lot. It gave me a different view on the many young, rebellious, troublesome, different, maladaptive people that are part of our society.
On the one hand it explained how the brain functions / develops when a person is in his teens. On the other hand it explains how that relates to the group of social peers, school (techers), home (parents), work and the whole view on the society they live in.

I understand things better which, (unfortunately for Junior) doesn't mean that rules no longer exist or can be bend as much as he likes them to be bent. The book has given me the ability to put things more into perspective. And that's VERY nice :-)… (plus d'informations)
