Your adolescent may tell you he knows it all, so next time you're driving him to band practice, ask what kids do at parties or what he thinks of sexual images he sees on TV or in movies. Talk to your daughter about friendship, love, sex and the spaces between. "Don't turn it into an 'organ recital.' It's more about relationships than plumbing," Haffner says.

Lyrically, Apple is full of fury: at her past, at her lovers, at herself. In To Your Love she sings, "It's hard enough even trying to be civil to myself." In Limp she mocks, "It won't be long till you'll be/ Lying limp in your own hands." She knows there are things about her that put people she loves at a distance. As she watches them recede...
