Press Release Summary: Besides the dangers of STDs, Dudum delves into sensitive teen
issues such as social networking websites like Facebook, alcohol use, effective
communication skills and self-confidence. He recommends parents leave a copy in
their daughter\'s bedroom and guarantees they\'ll read it

Press Release Body: San Francisco,CA,March,25,2008 -- The New York Times recently
reported, \"The first national study of four common sexually transmitted diseases
among girls and young women has found that one in four are infected with at least
one of the diseases.\" The new book, \'What Your Mother Never Told You - A Survival
Guide For Teenage Girls\' by author Richard Dudum, is one way to help fight these
frightening STD statistics.

This timely teen self-help book provides tools and strategies to help reverse this
dangerous trend.

Reviewer Jesse Kornbluth notes, \"After reading the New York Times article, I looked
for a book to recommend to teenage girls. Most seemed seriously out of touch--except
for one writer: Richard Dudum, a San Francisco lawyer who\'s fathered two sons and
two daughters. I like Dudum for his bluntness and awareness. Kids do stuff. Drugs.
Sex. Liquor. And while the girls may not play with fire for the same reasons that
boys do, they\'re the ones who pay the price. So they must be the ones who learn to
say no.\"

Nothing is left unsaid in \'What Your Mother Never Told You. Besides the dangers of
STDs, Dudum delves into sensitive teen issues such as social networking websites
like Facebook, alcohol use, effective communication skills and self-confidence. He
recommends parents leave a copy in their daughter\'s bedroom and guarantees they\'ll
read it.

A Texas high school senior who did read it said, \"What Your Mother Never Told You
immediately caught my attention as I read how to communicate. how to face the
consequences of my actions, how to deal with the sexual pressure regularly put on
girls. I saw the need for every girl to be aware of how she is being treated and
persuaded.\"

\'What Your Mother Never Told You\' climbed to #1 in Amazon\'s Parenting-Teenagers
