After years of working as an in-home therapist and probation officer, author William Glover grew frustrated with the conventional wisdom that said medication and/or therapy offered the only hope for angry, defiant, unmotivated, ADHD, ADD, oppositional, defiant, drug involved, juvenile court involved, and behaviorally handicapped kids. Based on his work with adolescents and their parents, he became convinced that the solution for the majority of troubled kids resided not with the professionals, but with the parents of these children. With this as a starting point, Glover began developing "The Adolescent Owner's Manual," a unique and effective resource designed to provide parents with the practical, common-sense tools and skills essential to parenting troubled adolescents.
