Rebels in Society: The Perils of Adolescence is a true journey into
the world of adolescents gone bad. This book reveals the inner
workings of adolescents who have been caught up in pathology and
the juvenile justice system. The first part of the book highlights
juvenile sex offenders, juvenile serial killers, anti social youth,
and the ones that become a statistic in the juvenile justice
system. The overview of the justice system is explained in a way
that an educator or parent can understand the legal process. This
complex process of many steps and layers has been simplified for
the reader in a way that one can navigate the process. This book
also has given a personal face to many of the youths who are caught
in the juvenile justice prison system.
Today's world creates challenges that are overwhelming for so many
kids and their families. Living without the necessary supports and
sometimes the basics forces kids to go out and seek what they
believe they need to survive. Many have become throwaway s and move
to the streets and the underbelly of our society. As a society, we
often assume that they have behavior disorders or have escaped
their homes and just for a thrill. Yet for many of these kids, it
is a choice between surviving or being abused, neglected, or killed
at the hands of a supposedly trusted adult. This book is a real
portrait of their struggles, their challenges, and their victories.
Children in Crisis is a resource to build awareness, understanding,

The sad fact is that many youths and children do not feel safe
either at school or at home. In recent years, there have been
increases in bullying, teacher assault, and student-to-student
physical altercations. Nearly every school child has witnessed
violence at school firsthand. The search for answers as to why
children use violence must be an ongoing conversation that
challenges the myths and perceptions around the issue of school and
personal violence. Intended for educators and parents, Books,
Blackboards, and Bullets focuses on key issues for identification
of school shooters and shootings. While explaining factors that
increase the likeliness of student violence, Marcel Lebrun
introduces many different perspectives that may be effective in
working with troubled populations in our schools. He provides many
strategies for dealing with difficult or violent youths, empowering
educators to act to prevent school shootings. The book also
provides checklists and assessment tools for evaluating possible
dangers as well as a list of resources that educators can use in
their daily work.
