It's never been more difficult to be a teen. Teens today face dangers that didn't exist when their parents were young: sexting, social media surveillance, omnipresent cameras, cyberbullying, revenge porn, and mass shootings, plus myriad other pitfalls for unwary young people.

What They Don't Teach Teens is the up-to-date safety guide for 21st century teens and their parents, giving proven strategies for self-defense against the new dangers of modern adolescence. Author Jonathan Cristall, an experienced prosecutor with the Los Angeles City Attorney's Office, has worked extensively with at-risk youth and has seen first-hand the risks teens run today. Cristall shows teens how to protect themselves and gives parents techniques for talking to teens about how to stay safe.

What They Don't Teach Teens gives sound advice on physical safety (sexual assault, interacting with police, dating violence, street safety, situational awareness, gun violence, and mass shootings), digital safety (permanence of internet data, sexting, revenge porn, and cyberbullying), and emotional safety (stopping sexual harassment and learning how to say no).

Comprehensive and eye-opening, What They Don't Teach Teens is a must-read for all families.
