Author Karen Harris has created an invaluable guide for teenage girls who are facing entering adulthood and the challenges that step presents. This excellent guidebook provides much needed information on how to learn many skills and become more self-sufficient. To date her books include LIFE SKILLS FOR TEENS, LIFE SKILLS FOR KIDS, and now LIFE SKILLS FOR TEENAGE GIRLS. The 21st-century guidebook of life safety skills for teens, their parents, and other caregivers, covering physical safety, sexual consent, social media, your rights with the police, situational awareness, dating violence, smartphones, and more. "Easy to read and comprehensive on topics of safety, Cristall's volume is an informative read for teens and their parents, but may also prove to be a helpful text for a high-school level health class." (Library Journal) Young people coming of age today face new risks, expectations, and laws that didn't exist when their parents were young. What They Don't Teach Teens provides teens, tweens, and young adults with up-to-date, realistic strategies to protect themselves against the pitfalls of modern adolescence. Author Jonathan Cristall, once a troubled teen himself and now a veteran prosecutor for the City of Los Angeles and a sexual violence prevention instructor, works extensively with teenagers and their families to teach physical, digital, emotional, and legal safety skills. Drawing on Cristall's hands-on experience, What They Don't Teach Teens gives parents and other caregivers techniques for talking to their children about these urgent issues. What They Don't Teach Teens gives sound advice on police interactions and personal safety (your constitutional rights, what to do/not do when stopped by the police while driving, situational awareness, street robberies, gun violence); sexual violence and misconduct (sexual consent, sexual harassment prevention, dating violence, sextortion); and staying safer online (digital footprint and citizenship, cyberbullying, underage sexting, online porn). A must-read for all families, What They Don't Teach Teens is filled with practical guidance, thoughtful insight, and simple-to-use tips and tactics that will empower young people to make good choices now and into the future. While a wonderful tool with a wealth of knowledge, the internet can be overwhelming to navigate at times. I mean, which of the thirteen articles about budgeting and saving money is actually accurate? And yes, you can ask your parents or other trusted adults in your life to teach you specific skills, but sometimes you just want to figure it out on your own. That's where this guide comes into play.

The teenage years are an exciting yet ever-changing period of your life. New challenges and tasks seem to pop up almost daily—not to mention all the transitions your body is going through. Do you have a teenager who is ready to take on the world? Or perhaps you yourself are a teen looking for ways to better manage your time, be more efficient, and stay organized. “Life Skills for Teens” by Karen Harris is an amazing resource that provides invaluable advice on how to do just that. Let’s take a look at what makes this book so useful. What You Get With This Book to all people: blind people, people with motor impairments, visual impairment, cognitive disabilities, and more.

Another reviewer learned just as much as their kids: “I looked through it when it came in the mail and almost kept it for myself. lol There’s a ton of extremely useful life skills information for young adults. Things that we as parents don’t really think about ‘teaching’ our children. I suggest that all parents get this 100% useful book for your teenager before they venture out into the world.” In her book, Karen Harris covers a wide range of topics that are essential to successful life skills. She starts by giving helpful tips on managing time more efficiently and how to prioritize tasks. She also emphasizes the importance of goal-setting and outlines some key strategies for achieving them. But it doesn’t stop there; she also has great advice when it comes to money management, staying organized, communicating effectively, and maintaining healthy relationships. Some other topics she covers include developing good habits, building self-confidence, using technology wisely, and creating an effective resume. Ways to improve your mental health and put yourself first while not allowing yourself to give in to peer pressureA good idea that needs editing, “Life Skills for Kids”, by Karen Harris, is written for 8-12 year olds and the graphics look like they are targeted for the younger ended of the range. They are cute enough but sadly, there is no, (or maybe 1?), representation of multi racial or differently abled kids to be found. The vocabulary is geared for older kids. While I applaud the inclusion of definitions for unfamiliar words and concepts, they often include unknown items or those things being defined. Additionally, the grammar is really rough and in the 2nd sentences of the book’s first paragraph in chapter 1, there is an error, (“Here’s are an example.” - text and punctuation), that should be corrected ASAP, at least in the Kindle copy I reviewed. Perfect Gift for Teenage Girls!Getting through life as a teenage girl is no easy feat! From dealing with body changes to perfecting your personal hygiene routine, maintaining good physical health, and prioritizing your mental health, there's a lot you can expect to go through over the next few years.
