The theme of "Teenage Wasteland" by Anne Tyler explores the challenges of parenting, the complexities of family dynamics, and the impact of societal pressures on adolescents. It also delves into the themes of communication breakdown, generational differences, and the struggle to connect with one's child.
It is about a 15 year old boy named Donny Coble. His parents begin to get concerned when his grades begin to slip and he develops behavioral problems. They take him to a psychologist, who recommends he see a tutor named Cal. Cal, however, proves to be no help, because Donny's grades slip even more. Eventually, Donny gets expelled from school when he is found with beer and cigarettes. Cal again proves to be no help. Donny's parents end their tutoring sessions with Cal and enroll Donny in public school. However, even though he does well, he ends up disappearing and not returning home. Months pass, and Donny is still gone. I read this story in English III today. Pretty interesting :)
