Paperback. Condition: Very Good. A word of mouth bestseller which has become one of the best loved and most successful books in the parenting field. With around 20% new material, Steve Biddulph's Raising Boys is to be re-released this month with some startling new research on what helps - and what harms - boys. In this expanded and updated edition, Steve Biddulph shares and gives practical and honest advice to parents so they can recognise the different stages of boyhood and learn how to raise happy, confident and kind young men. Boys need to be parented in a different way from girls with their own very special psychological and physical make-up. Home, society and education have failed boys badly - and these failures lead to unhappy men who cannot fully become happy, responsible, emotionally-confident adults. While it is essential that boys spend more time learning about manhood from their fathers, Biddulph updates his classic to include helpful information for mothers and single mothers with baby boys. This extended edition explores some important topics: . * How ADHD may be caused by stress in the first year of life. * Whether boys should start school later than girls. * How important it is to let boys cry, and how crying helps avoid violence, suicide, and risky behaviour. * Two completely new stages of boyhood we didn't know about: the FULL ON FOURS and the EMOTIONAL EIGHTS * Help for single mothers raising sons. * How to choose a sport that does more good than harm. * What we can do about boys and binge drinking. * What science can tell us about teenage boys and driving - and how we can keep our sons safe. Raising Boys offers parents real-life situations, thought-provoking insights, humour and help. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

All rights reserved.Have you ever browsed through a family photo collection and seen photos of a boy taken over the course of many years, from babyhood through to young manhood? If you have, youll know that boys dont grow up in a smooth way. They go in surges-looking the same for a year or two, then suddenly seeming to change overnight. And thats only on the outside. On the inside, great changes are happening, too. But developing maturity and character arent as automatic as physical growing. A boy can get stuck. Everyone knows at least one man who is large in body but small in mind or soul. He just hasnt developed as a mature person. Such men are everywhere-they might be rich, powerful, a president, or a tycoon, but you look at them and think, Yep, still a boy. And not a very nice one.Boys dont grow up well if you dont help them. You cant just shovel in cereal, provide clean T-shirts, and expect him to one day wake up as a man! You need to follow a certain program. The trick is to understand what is needed-and when.Luckily, boys have been around for a very long time. Every society in the world has encountered the challenge of raising boys and has come up with solutions. The three stages of boyhood are timeless and universal. Native Americans, the San tribe of the Kalahari, Australian Aborigines-all knew about these stages. We know them from science-hormone studies and brain imaging. And from observation-whenever I talk about these stages with parents, they say, Thats right! because the stages match their experience. They just hadnt thought about it before.Here are the stages at a glance:1. The first stage of boyhood is from birth to six-the span of time when the boy primarily belongs to his mother. He is her boy, even though his father may play a very big role, too. The aim at this age is to give strong love and security, and to switch a boy on to life as a warm and welcoming experience.2. The second stage includes the years from six tofourteen-when the boy, out of his own internal drives, starts wanting to learn to be a man, and looks more and more to his father for interest and activity. (Though his mother remains very involved, and the wider world is beckoning, too.) The purpose of this stage is to build competence and skill while developing kindness and playfulness, too-becoming a balanced person. This is the age when a boy becomes happy and secure about being male.3. Finally, the years from fourteen to ad.

All rights reserved.A Letter from SteveDear Reader,Its amazing what you learn about yourself. Twenty years ago, when we were expecting our second child, friends naturally asked what we were hoping for, a boy or a girl? I always said I didnt mind, and I really believed that was true. We already had a boy of seven, and we were very eager simply to have another child.We had planned on having a homebirth, but it ended as an emergency caesarian-thats what we do every time in our family! So I found myself standing in the operating room, trying my best not to faint. Then from Shaarons belly the medical team pulled a slippery bundle, and somebody said, Well done, youve got a little girl! Suddenly I was crying. And laughing. And jumping around. I was, in short, incredibly happy. I hadnt realized how much I wanted a daughter. I was holding her and looking at her for hours afterward, just amazed. That was all those years ago, and the feeling hasnt gone away.Daughters evoke such strong feelings in us-protectiveness, awe, hope, and fear, but mostly just a fierce love and a wish to give them the best possible life.* * *For more than twenty years, I had a specialty in boys and men. It wasnt a choice so much as a mission-back then, boys were a disaster zone, and urgently in need of help. I wrote the worlds top-selling book on raising boys, with a simple message that they needed to be strongly loved and firmly taught how to be good men, that they needed positive role models, and that their energy wasnt a bad thing.Back then, girls were doing fine. Then, in the mid-2000s, that started to change. We began to see a sudden and marked plunge in girls mental health, first in the United States but quickly spreading across the world. Problems such as eating disorders and self-harm, which had once been extremely rare, were now happening in every school and on almost every street. But more than this, the average girl, everygirl, was stressed and depressed in a way we hadnt seen before.Girls arent born hating their own bodies. They arent born angry at life. Something was happening in the culture that was poisoning girls spirits. It seemed to come on a.

Softcover. Condition: Good. Illustrated. This book will help to promote storytelling as a key education tool." - Dr. Jane Goodall, DBE, Founder of the Jane Goodall Institute & UN Messenger of PeaceThis whimsical little book combines the science of storytelling with a step-by-step method for parents, grandparents, educators, and anyone interested in a lasting relationship with children.Storytelling helps children build empathy and remember life lessons. It hones their concentration, boosts their vocabulary, and expands their imaginations. Most importantly, storytelling fosters the connection between parent and child. It also happens to be a lot of fun.Storytelling is as old as cave paintings and as modern as blockbuster movies. What we now know from neurologists, psychologists, and evolutionary theorists is that storytelling is not just for fun. It is a cognitive tool humans evolved to share information, retain attention, and build trust. Fortunately, we don't need to know any of that to put it to good use. It comes naturally to each one of us - just like walking.With a clear method, sample stories, and practice exercises, this book gently guides parents through the steps of telling:Whimsical StoriesStories that SootheStories that TeachThe ultimate message is this - you are already a good storyteller. The quantity of books and videos available to children today sometimes leads parents to believe we cant compete with the professionals. Nothing could be further from the truth. When we drop the search for the "perfect story," we discover something much richer and longer lasting. Storytelling isn't so much about the story itself - it's about the loving connection that grows between parent and child.The best stories are told by the ones who know us deeply. And if you lack confidence, then here is loads of help. - Steve Biddulph, New York Times Bestselling Author of The Secret of Happy Children, Raising Boys, and Raising Girls.
