Parents are desperate to know how to handle teenagers in today's society. As a trained counselor, former public school teacher, and full-time conference speaker, Shannon Perry addresses the issues that teens say cause them to feel "overlooked."

In "The Overlooked Generation," Shannon addresses many important and timely issues including:
*Effective and necessary parent/teen communication
*Body image and self-esteem
*Dealing with bullies and how not to be become a victim
*Dating, purity and God's promises
*Effects and dangers of Social Media
*Setting healthy boundaries for serious situations
*Cultivating quality friendships and relationships
