Terms of Service

Last updated: July 2026

Who we are

This site is operated by Lourens Breytenbach. By using it, you agree to the terms below.

What we sell

Digital ebooks, programmes, and a course. Everything is delivered electronically. Prices are shown in US dollars at checkout.

Refunds

Every paid product carries a 30-day refund: read it, use it, and if it doesn't earn its keep, write to lourens@studystartsystem.com and you'll be refunded in full. No forms, no defending the decision.

Licence

What you buy is for your own household. You're welcome to print it, mark it up, and share it with the other parent in your home. Please don't redistribute it publicly or resell it.

Not medical or legal advice

After 30 years in the classroom and now as a school manager, I know a few secrets about dealing with teenagers — let me share these secrets with you today. This writing is the work of an educator, not a clinician. It is not a substitute for therapy, medical care, or legal advice. If your teen is in crisis, please seek qualified support — the Parenting Guides will tell you when.

Liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from use of the site or its products.

Changes

We may update these terms occasionally. Material changes will be notified by email to subscribers.
