Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
It's a rough, tough world for middle schoolers today. Not long ago most kids believed in Santa Claus. Now, barely on the cusp of adolescence, they are thrust into an adult world, stripped bare of the parental protections afforded previous generations. Their loss of innocence has been profound. From Santa to Sexting includes interviews with experts, parents, and the kids themselves. It arms parents with the practical information, inspiring stories, and resources they need to keep ... kids safe and strong in middle school. Book jacket.
Includes bibliographical references (p. 249-269 ).
