Adolescence has long been viewed as a time of difficulties at best and turmoil and crisis at worst; however, many researchers, psychologists, and youth workers suggest that the evidence does not support this general, albeit persistent, perception. Nevertheless, many adolescents do have difficulties, turmoil, crises, and a whole plethora of other disruptive experiences during this period of development. This is one story about an adolescent girl as told from her parents’ perspective and experience of parenting her during approximately a 3-year period when she was 15 to 18 years of age. It is told through story but also through mixed media images. The story and the images both share and take over the pages with the "general story of adolescence."
