About this product

Product Information

Boys will be boys . . . It's time we stopped trying to "fix" them. Boys today are being bombarded with a slew of diagnoses-ADHD, Asperger's, bipolar disorder-at an alarming rate and at younger ages. The Way of Boys urges parents, educators, pediatricians, psychologists, and other developmental experts to reevaluate and significantly change how we deal with our youngest boys. When parents understand the wide spectrum for normal boy development, they can successfully communicate with their son-and everyone in their son's life-and help him grow into a healthy and smart young man. Dr. Anthony Rao challenges some of the potentially harmful assumptions, attitudes, and behaviors we've developed toward young boyhood over the last few decades. The Way of Boys is a celebration of natural, constructive boyhood development and an expert, definitive handbook on what to look for and expect in normal growth.

Satisfactory experience. Would buy from this Seller again. Book listed as brand new and met that description, except for two indentations in the back cover from something that made partial punctures in the mailer. So the packaging was good, but could have been better. Order was confirmed, with notifications re shipping and delivery. Reasonable price and shipping.
