About the Book

Sarah Macdonald and Cathy Wilcox are friends, next-door neighbours and fellow mums of teens who have lived through it all and produced this straight-talking, not entirely sarcastic, informative guide to what for many parents are the most challenging but interesting and exciting years in the role. 

If you are worried about drugs, they recommend Valium, wine and HRT. On the bright side, you've reduced your need for Google your adolescent is now able to frequently correct, hector and lecture you with their strong opinion on everything.

You are not imaging the tiredness. Teen years are like dog years: for every year your teen ages, you age seven. 

From A is for Argumentative, Awkward and Angst, to Z is for Zits and Zzzzzs. Because having a toddler is a doddle..

For many women in their 40s and 50s they came of age listening to her host the Morning Show on Triple J. Sarah co-hosts the storytelling event and comedy podcast 'The Full Catastrophe'. She has two terrific teens who would say this book is 'fully sick' but they refuse to read it.
