As I read this book, I found that it was not only a good book to refer to my teen children, nieces, nephews and godchildren, but found that there were pearls of wisdom included that helped me as well! I had quite a few “ah-ha” moments.
This book provides steps to follow for numerous goals - questions to ask yourself to assist in understanding yourself, your strengths and weaknesses, and your goals.
I especially appreciated that this book, unlike numerous other teen self help books I have read while trying to find the ones I feel would help my teens the most before referring them to them, explains and addresses everything at a higher, intellectual level. This book does not come across as an adult writing to a child, but rather a peer, writing from experience as well as from research.
Each chapter is SO relevant to situations that will happen every day in a teen’s life (and everyone’s life, to be honest). Goal setting, critical vs creative thinking, and problem solving (and this section is particularly helpful and well written).
The budgeting and money saving/earning chapter is fabulous - it isn’t the same old, same old advice - it offers so many easy to follow suggestions, and breaks it down in a way that everyone can understand. The time management advice is the same.
As a mom of two teens who don’t want to read self help book after self help book, I have read many teen guide books to try and find one I felt would not only truly help them, but that they could relate to. And let me tell you, this is it!!

I kind of wish I had a book like this when I was a teen. There is a lot of helpful tips especially the section on money and budgeting as well as one all about thinking and critical thinking vs overthinking. He makes it easy to read through and understand without feeling like you are reading a text book. I enjoyed reading it as an adult and recommended it for the teens in my life and for the one in yours.

Mr. Skiddy truly has written an important book for all teenagers! I love the nonsense approach about teaching a teenager to become an adult. So many teenagers don't have this type of support and don't have the necessary skills to enter into a successful adulthood. If you have or know a teenager, this is an excellent tool for them to thrive as an adult!
