Very thorough and complete
My fifth grade grandson asked for a copy of this book after reading through parts of it at a friend's home. His friend received her copy as a Christmas gift. I suspect she showed it to him to try and improve on his typical fifth grade boy manners (or lack thereof). Since he began reading we have all seen noticable improvement in how the relates to both other youth and adults around him. He mostly uses it as a reference book, and looks up what it says about specific problems as they come up. I am certain he has looked through the section on Sex Ediquette because he is starting to become courious about those things, but we found nothing there that should not be covered in the "sex education" part of his regular health classes. I would recommend the book for any youth in Middle School.
I did not read the whole book but I skimmed through it before buying it for my daughter. It looks very thourough and some parts are quite funny. The author treats the subject with good common sense. HOWEVER, the sexual part seems to me something it could have been edited. I don't think that discussion was necessary. So upon my wife's suggestion I WILL EDIT THE BOOK BY CUTTING THAT PART OUT after I buy it. I hate to do it but I must unless I find some other book.
