Cutting

This book was helpful when one of the girls in our church showed up to my house one night with cuts on her arm. Based on the info in this book, and personal experience, I assured the mother that her daughter's display of self injury was not typical of teens dealing with pain. Sure enough, the daughter was just frustrated and wanted attention. It was the first and last time it happened. I've purchased 10 of these to hand out to moms and dads at my annual parent meeting.
