Would not recommend the ebook version as much of the value of the book would be in the written exercises and worksheets. (

Describing 10 simple steps that lead to better behavior, Your Defiant Teen demonstrates how to establish common ground, encourage mutual respect, and introduce cooperative problem solving-all without escalating the struggle for control. 18 true/false, multiple choice, short answer and fill in the blank questions.
