Her parents were recently divorced and it didn't take long before their lassitude and Kerry's desire to stand out--to be memorable in some way--combined to lead her down a path she knew she shouldn't take. She wanted love--but not really understanding what love was, not really knowing how to get it, she reached for sex instead. This story of addiction--not just to sex, but to male attention--is also the story of a young girl who came to believe that boys and men--it didn't matter who--could give her life meaning. Her journey from that hopeless place to her current confident and fulfilled existence is a cautionary tale, and a revelation.--From publisher description. 650 10 $a Cohen, Kerry. 650 0 $a Teenage girls $x Case studies. $x United States $x Case studies. 650 0 $a Promiscuity $x United States. 941 $a 1 952 $l YKPE532 $d 20130314040338.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=5E910DAE386011E2A6F389E16AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
