In The Privilege of Youth, he shares the missing chapter of his life: as a boy on the threshold of adulthood. With sensitivity and insight, he recounts the relentless taunting he endured from bullies; but he also describes the thrill of making his first real friendssome of whom he still shares close relationships with today. He writes about the simple pleasures of exploring his neighborhood, while trying to forget the hell waiting for him at home. From high school to a world beyond the four walls that were his prison for so many years, The Privilege of Youth bravely and compassionately charts this crucial turning point in Dave Pelzers life and will inspire a whole new generation of readers. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Dave Pelzer BooksYou just cannot phantom what Mr. Pelzer went through as a child. The courage is unbelievable and I admire him so very much. There is too much child abuse in society and children are tormented not to speak out because they love their parents the ones who are abusing. Mr. Pelzer's books are about himself and his horrible life as a child, teenager and young man. You have to read these books to better understand how much abuse is in our world.

Better then described!! Rating:  - Unecessary and not very goodThis book covers a time that was already written about in The Lost Boy. Despite my love for Dave's other books I think this was an attempt to milk out more money from his already established fans. This book does not give much more information about his life and only a few forgettable fun stories about his teenage years. Don't waste your time on this one, just read the first three. Rating:  - Not his best workI have read A Child Called "It", The Lost Boy, A Man Named Dave and Help Yourself and I must say that this book was not Dave's best work. The writing did not keep me interested as his other books have. While reading this I felt like the passion just wasn't there. Rating: - Read every Dave Pelzer bookRead every Dave Pelzer book he writes. He is an exceptional human being. There should be more people like him without having to go through the abuse he endured.
