Why are adolescent girls prone to depression eating disorders addictions and suicide attempts than ever before? Mary Pipher believes adolescence is an especially precarious time for girls a time when the fearless outgoing child is replaced by an unhappy and insecure teenager.

Her view is that for the most part it is our look-obsessed media-saturated 'girl-poisoning' culture - and not parents - which is to blame. Despite the advances of feminism escalating levels of sexism and violence cause girls to stifle their creative spirit and natural impulses which ultimately destroys their self-esteem. Yet it is often their families that are blamed.

Here for the first time are thr girls unmuted voices. By laying bare their harsh day-to-day reality Reviving Ophelia offers parents compassion strength and strategies with which to revive these Ophelias' lost sense of self.
