Reviews"An important book . . . Pipher shines high-beam headlights on the world of teenage girls." Los Angeles Times "A vibrant and insightful account . . . The loss of the spirit which Dr. Pipher so brilliantly portrays is the loss of the American spirit." DR. NATALIE PORTER Former president, Division of the Psychology of Women, American Psychological Association
SynopsisWhy are more American adolescent girls prey to depression, eating disorders, addictions, and suicide attempts than ever before? According to Dr. Mary Pipher, a clinical psychologist who has treated girls for more than twenty years, we live in a look-obsessed, media-saturated, "girl-poisoning" culture. Despite the advances of feminism, escalating levels of sexism and violence--from undervalued intelligence to sexual harassment in elementary school--cause girls to stifle their creative spirit and natural impulses, which, ultimately, destroys their self-esteem. Yet girls often blame themselves or their families for this "problem with no name" instead of looking at the world around them. Here, for the first time, are girls' unmuted voices from the front lines of adolescence, personal and painfully honest. By laying bare their harsh day-to-day reality, Reviving Ophelia issues a call to arms and offers parents compassion, strength, and strategies with which to revive these Ophelias' lost sense of self.

Reviving Ophelia
On the surface our society has changed in many ways but the reality of child abuse, its predictable patterns, and the resulting trauma and physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional fallout have not. This book is an excellent beginner’s glimpse into the dynamics of adolescent child abuse. One copy for me, two as must-gifts for siblings.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
