Book Review of Reviving Ophelia: Saving the Selves of Adolescent Girls

Reviving Ophelia: Saving the Selves of Adolescent Girls
reviewed on


This book is a classic. I'd recommend it to every mom (and dad) with a teenage daughter at home. There are great stories about different girls at various stages and trials in their lives and how their issues were handled....or not. There was so much here that I had never thought about when rearing my daughter, lots of juicy tidbits and details that every mom will say, "oh yea! I know that girl." It helps not to feel so all on your own when reading from the experts that some behaviors are universal, expected, but fixable. I say, Open the Book,on this one.
