“the ONLY one” who doesn’t have (fill in the blank)? Welcome to the

rollercoaster years of adolescence! Join popular parenting expert Joani Geltman

in an entertaining and informative presentation, where you will learn how to

"teen proof" your home and relationship, set appropriate limits,

media traps aimed at teens.
