In this hard-hitting book, Michael Carr-Gregg focuses on the special trials of raising adolescent girls today- what to do when your previously quiet, loving daughter becomes a restless, rebellious stranger who behaves like a responsible adult one day and a vampish brat the next.

Part of the problem is that girls are becoming sexualised earlier, and their physical development is shooting ahead of their cognitive capacities.

By the time they turn 13 they look like they're ready for anything - but they're not. Yet, argues Carr-Gregg, many parents are surrendering their authority and allowing their daughters to be fast-tracked into pseudo-adulthood.

We appear to be losing it when it comes to parenting our girls and it's time to grab back the reins.

This book is a must-read for every parent with an adolescent daughter.
