Raising Boys Why Boys Are Different - and How to Help Them Become Happy and Well-balanced Men This text argues that 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 emotionally confident adults. The author Steve Biddulph goes on to assert that it is essential that boys spend more time learning about manhood from their fathers. Through the teen years a boy ideally needs a male mentor outside his immediate family to teach him the best way to live. Without these things boys can turn to alcohol drugs and despair and fail to grow up into feeling responsible adults. In this text Biddulph provides advice on: the stages of boyhood; how a mother teaches about life and love; how schools need to change to be made a good place for boys; testosterone and how it changes behaviour; how to be a good father; and how to teach boys to have a caring attitude towards girls and sex. ...

Although a pocket book this guide offers a wealth of information and facts that dispel the myths about what diabetics should and shouldn't eat. ...
