    Creator

    Reist, Michael

    Abstract

    More than ever before boys need guidance, and this book will guide parents on all subjects, such as bullying, discipline, and homework. Limited time offer. From video games to the Internet, technology and popular culture are having a profound effect on today’s boys. Boys need guidance more than ever. But how can we help them do better in school? How can we keep the lines of communication open? Raising Boys in a New Kind of World is a passionate call for greater empathy. The more we know about boys, the more realistic our expectations of them will be.
