Clark attempts to describe the ways in which adults have abandoned the midadolescent population, the results of this abandonment, and what adults can do now to work towards a brighter adolescent future. This is his main argument, and in some ways, he strengthens this with evidence, but more often than not he attempts to make his argument by glorifying the past and by making bold generalizations. After some setup with the first three chapters, each subsequent chapter is supposed to outline the effects of this abandonment in a separate teenage realm. However, these chapters are not extremely unique, and Mr. Clark seems to only to be looking for new ways to use the word "abandoned" in a sentence.

While what he is saying is important, he could have said it in 100 fewer pages, and he could have highlighted more meaningful evidence. While I felt at times that Clark had the evidence to prove his claims, the way much of the book is written makes it feel as if his work is based on conjecture and is more of an attempt to play on our emotions than to critically approach a subject he is passionate about.
