Abstract
Written by an Australian family therapist, this practical guide provides a supportive approach to parenting boys. Citing such gender specific risks facing boys as a higher percentage of learning disabilities to greater threats of violence and suicide, the author offers parenting strategies for three distinct stages of growth: birth to six years; six to 14; and 14 to adult. It includes sidebars, photos and cartoons, and each chapter wraps up with a summary. For parents of both boys and girls.

This memoir provides an unflinching look at what it means to be the outcast, how even the most loving parents can get it all wrong, why schools are often unable to prevent disaster, and how bullying has been misunderstood and mishandled by the mental health community.
