Author Susan Clawson knows firsthand the problems teens face, because she’s a parent who has been there. 

In her Parent/Teen Stories series, she reveals her own experiences of feeling hopeless and wrongfully judged by others during some very trying and challenging times with her own teen.     

The first book of her groundbreaking series, Without Judgment, is a collection of short stories written by both teens and parents from around the world who have experienced troublesome times such as teen pregnancy, substance abuse, school and family issues, eating disorders, suicide, bullying, living on the streets and more. These stories are a tool to help others in turmoil realize that they are not alone in their circumstances and it’s okay to seek help without being judged or shunned.
