Editorial Reviews

Sandra Freeman
Ellen Gerst's book, "The Teenage Pregnancy Prevention Guide," is a must read for every teenager and their parents. The book is filled with insightful tips and thoughts along with extremely useful information that every teen needs to know. Even as an adult, its impact on me is tremendous because I was a pregnant teen.

I was 18 years old and knew nothing about sex, contraception or anything else related to intimacy. In fact, when I got my first period, I thought I was bleeding to death be
Kathy Lynn
This guide offers important information to both teenagers and parents. It is down-to-earth, honest, and clear without being judgmental.I believe that parents should read the book and then pass it on to their teens.Talking to our kids about sexuality and pregnancy is difficult for most. We aren't really sure what to say or how to start. A book like this gives you a starting point and makes the whole important conversation easier.I would recommend it for all families raising tweens and teens.

Meet the Author

Ellen Gerst is a coach who specializes in grief and relationships. She believes that understanding these two subjects will ultimately help one move successfully through life.

After all, life is an endless succession of beginnings and endings, some small and some huge. This reflects the natural duality of the world. For example, a hello can be full of fear, but it also can be exciting. A goodbye could be sad, but you could also be thankful that a difficult time in your life has ended. How you view your life and your personal challenges all comes down to your perspective. Change it, and you take the first steps to changing your life.
Ellen is the author of several books on both grief and relationships, Her titles include: Suddenly Single, born out of Ellen's own experiences as a young widow; Understanding Grief From A to Z, which discusses the emotions of grief and gives practical suggestions on how to move through them, and Love After Loss: Writing The Rest of Your Story, which provides a blueprint on how to find new love after the loss of a partner from death, divorce or break-up.

She also writes and speaks on many other subjects, including, caregiving for aging parents; fitness and weight loss; spirituality; and networking and social media.
