Dr. Mitchell has developed a break-through approach on living with tweens & teens. Those Dicey Growing Up Years presents 6 Essential Ideas that when followed from an early age will lead to a daughter or son who is self-assured, able to make decisions on their own and has a remarkable level of responsibility for making smart decisions.
