Yes, it is true. Teenagers can be know-it-alls. For many, it is at this age, when most refuse to listen to their parents' wisdom and advice. This book, however, turns this entire notion upside down. Yes, it is written from teenagers to parents, but maybe not in a way you would expect. It is a call for parents to step up and lead them, to teach and train them in the most important areas and aspects of life. What a unique approach and voice for a book! It flies in the face of our current youth culture in so many ways. The Uncommon Teenager is filled with solid, practical Life 101 skills, but much deeper than this, is a heart to honor and glorify God.
