Summary: Inaccurate rubbish with a slanderous twist
Review: I found most of this book to not have only been written in hurry but I also found inaccuracies within its context. I implore this author to research her facts and take time to edit her own mistakes.

Not only is this book poorly written and researched she has slandered the artists of her illustrations by accusing him of crimes against children, which has caused the artists to only lose his job but had compromised his reputation which he has worked so hard to build.

Summary: UNPROFESSIONAL AUTHOR
Review: I WAS VERY UNSATISFIED WITH THIS BOOK. COMMING TO THE FACTS AND REALIZATION OF THE REVIEWS POSTED ON THIS WEBSITE, I NOW OBSERVE THAT THERE WAS DISCRIMINATION FROM YHE AUTHOR AGAINST THE ARTIST MR.DAVID ALDANA OF THIS BOOK. I FEEL THAT THE AUTHOR MENTIONS HERSELF ON SEVERAL DIFFERENT OCCASIONS IN THIS BOOK WHEN THE FOCUS SHOULD BE ON THE JUVINIAL JUSTICE SYSTEM.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If but ONE idea from this book proves worthwhile ...
Review: If but ONE idea from this book proves worthwhile, it's worth the purchase price to a parent of a teen who's on the way to a life of trouble.

The author knows this, and she writes from personal experience in 2 Late 4 Time Out.

As a father of a teen myself, I can easily empathize with anyone who is faced with a child who's faced with the difficult decisions young people have to make in today's world.

The media, social mores and peer pressure are stacked against parents, who all too frequently find their teens at a crossroads -- one which may well determine the rest of their lives.

The typical home computer is among the best tools one can use to find good information, communicate with experienced people and find solutions, and that premise is central to the hundreds of offerings in 2 Late 4 Time Out.

If but one idea pans out for a parent, it's well worth the purchase of 2 Late 4 Time Out.

Summary: When Your Kid Stands Over You By 6" It Is 2 Late 4 Time Out
Review: No one wants to admit that his or her kid is making bad decisions, hanging with the wrong "friends" or just got arrested. Not to your pastor, your parents, friends or employer. So where does a loving caregiver go for help, besides waiting for the Court to pronounce judgement?

2 Late 4 Time Out: A Parent's Guide To Understanding The Juvenile Justice System is a down-to-earth look at issues of pre-delinquency to court matters, including a comprehensive glossary, that is ideal for busy parents. As you'll discover in the first couple of pages, the book was written by a parent of a court-involved, at-risk youth.

I loved the stories. The references were invaluable and the book was breezy to read, even though the subject is heart-breaking.

Summary: What every parent should know
Review: Written from the heart, and from life, this book will touch you.

In a world where we expect so much to be instant, easy and prepackaged, we sometimes need guidance through systems that affect our lives, but are beyond our experience.

What happens if you and your child are facing jails, courts, lawyers, police, and children's services ? We all want to fix it, will work hard to fix it, and do anything, but WHAT do we DO ?

Here is a guide to navigating our way through a system we hoped we'd never have to know about. And it is easy and prepackaged, a read that will open your eyes and your heart, and offer real solutions to saving our youth, one child at a time.

If you are not raising young teenagers it will give you insight. If you are raising young teens, it will give you guidance. If you are going to raise young teens, it offers advice to head off hard times.

Read this for yourself and your children, then keep it handy, you will refer to it often.
