Mel Levine's "Ready or Not, Here Life Comes"

http://allkindsofminds.org

Mel Levine presents the best information on helping teenagers move into a productive adulthood. This should be required reading for all parents, teachers, school administrators, counselors and pediatricians and all those people who work with children. He has talked about the importance of helping teenagers get a sense of reality (greater worldview that is both short and long-term) and has some good tools to help. I wish I had seen this earlier but it just came out as I have an 18 year old who is in a society filled with huge possibilities and with no realistic expectations about how to achieve them.
