Description
Growing up can be a hazardous journey. One minute, you’re a carefree kid. The next, you’re juggling exams, screens, relationship dramas, weird emotions, and the reality of entering the adult world.
That’s where Ladult comes in.
This isn’t just another book—it's a survival guide for the wild ride from boy to man. Packed with insight, science, stories, and straight-up advice, it covers the stuff they don’t teach you in school. You’ll learn how to handle pressure, boost confidence, bounce back from setbacks, and build the kind of mindset that keeps you strong—no matter what life throws at you.
Ladult will help teenagers:
- Build great habits
- Grow in confidence
- Spend less time glued to screens
- Upgrade their relationships
- Strengthen their resilience
- Fulfil their potential
- Future-proof their life
Ladult doesn’t shy away from the big stuff. It tackles screen time, testosterone, porn, neurodiversity, and toxic masculinity head-on. No fluff. No filters. Just real talk, with a good dose of humour.
Buckle up. This is your route map through adolescence towards becoming the adult you want to be.
