" Overall I think there are a lot of good things about this book. It does best when it helps teens think through difficult situations, it is at its worst when it tells teens what to do. The worst sections are about sex and drugs. It takes a hard line—abstinence until marriage; don't touch anything that looks like a drug—approach. My understanding is that abstinence only sex education is associated with an increase in teen pregnancy and STDs. Similarly, telling a story about the horrors of pot and how someone crashed a car and killed their friend while using it is very reminiscent of the 1930s "Reefer Madness." It's just bad psychology. With these faults in mind, I think there is a lot of good advice on certain things and it can be useful in organizing your life. Much of the material is straight out of Stephen Covey's 7 Habits, and that's a time-tested masterpiece. "
