Violence. Drugs. Pregnancy. Suicide. Are our nation's teenagers out of control? Mike Males provides a shockingly different picture--How politicians, private interests, and the media unfairly scapegoat adolescents for America's problems. The Scape Goat Generation dramatically re-defines both modern adolescence and the challenges faced by all Americans to ensure the next generation's future.
