Abstract "This book does not gloss over the conflicts and argument that often surfaced when antidrug parent groups formed across the country. Rather, it attempts to chronicle the real life stories -- the blunt speech, energy of personality, and resilient humor -- of parents and teenagers who eventually surmounted the obstacles, learned to work out differences, and made significant changes in their communities."--Page v (preface).
