Anisha was only 3y old when she was betrothed to a 6y old boy whom she has never met. She finds out at the age of 12 and becomes obsessed with killing herself, swearing that she will never attend her own wedding. Find out what she does to get even with a society that still celebrates mass underage marriages to this day. At the age of 10y, a civil war broke out in Oumar's country in what the United Nations is now calling the "worst humanitarian disaster" of our time. However, at the age of 14y, his own parents enlisted him to fight in the Yemenese army! A war he barely understands, let alone knows how to fight in. Find out what Oumar does, if anything, to keep his sanity and keep his faith. Two of the most homophobic countries in West Africa are; Nigeria and Ghana. Emeka has dual citizenship by birth. When he realizes he is gay, he is faced with hypocrisy at home, and hostility everywhere else. He has to somehow navigate his young adult life with increasing uncertainty every day. Can he walk this walk and land on his two feet before he loses his mind? A Teen's life chronicles the lives of 12 teenagers struggling to make sense of their lives and the lemons they have been given. The second installment by Dr. Lulu, a pediatrician, International keynote speaker and bestselling author of "How to Raise Well Rounded Children", A Teen's Life discusses the variety of stressors our teenagers face today, and how they interplay with decisions by the teens, that might have lasting (sometimes deadly) outcomes which invariably affects the prevalence of youth suicides. If you have ever felt trapped, hopeless, helpless, mentally anguished, overwhelmed, depressed or anxious, this book is for you. With the foreword by Mr. Andy Grant, multiple suicide attempt survivor, the first few pages of the book captivate the writer right away! A Teen's Life will pull at your heartstrings, it will empty your tear ducts and it will also give you a few chuckle-worthy moments as well.
