"As girls become teenagers, it's as though they are suddenly hapless tourists in their own lives, dropped in a strange, uncharted territory without a compass or map. Parents can learn to help their daughters navigate and think critically about the images, the messages, and the unspoken rules of todays' adolescence. In The Disappearing Girl, I suggest ways you can help the girls in your life cope with the pressures they encounter.
