Dr. Cara Natterson illuminates boys' inner lives, details the pressures they face from the outside world, and teaches parents how to effectively engage and support their adolescent sons. Decoding Boys is clear, wise, and eye-opening. If you're raising a boy, you need this brilliant book. For every parent who asks me how to get their son to say more than I'm fine, I now have an answer: read Decoding Boys and absorb Cara Natterson's wise, thoughtful, compassionate, and informed advice. So many boys suffer through their adolescence in silence, identified by their schools as a problem, or blamed for not reaching their potential. Natterson explains what's going on in their bodies and minds, and shows you how to support them as they navigate the complexities of growing up. I am so grateful for Decoding Boys because it will empower parents to have better relationships with their sons and guide them to become confident, honorable young men. It is a book I wish I could put into every parent's hands and make them read. I think I may just buy a load of books and walk around giving them out! Decoding Boys offers remarkable scientific insight as to why teenage boys seem to shut down and behave antisocially once they enter puberty. We would say we wish this book was around when we were teenagers, but we were too busy playing video games, underage drinking, and lying to our parents to read. Fifty years ago the publication of Our Bodies, Ourselves lifted women up by replacing ignorance and prejudice with knowledge and the power of sisterhood. Decoding Boys is equally revolutionary in its mission to help us understand the nuances of how boys develop. Natterson's warm, candid and conversational style gives us a vibrant, page-turning deep dive into both their emotional and physical growth; hers is an authoritative and passionate voice. I finished reading this book enlightened and excited to share it with parents of boys everywhere. Decoding Boys is the ultimate guide to help you understand and raise your boys with acceptance and perspective. Reading it is like having an empathetic, really smart friend who totally gets what you are going through and is helpful every step of the way!

Decoding Boys is the book we've been waiting for! Dr. Cara Natterson tackles the topics that are difficult for parents to understand, let alone discuss with their children.

She grew up in Los Angeles, dreaming of helping others. After medical school and training to be a paediatrician, she returned to her hometown to work as a primary care doctor. Whilst there she learned first-hand how difficult it can be for parents to navigate all of the information (good and bad) thrust at them. That's when Cara started writing books. At first, she focused on medical issues, but over time her writing shifted to the most common fears and misconceptions about paediatric health. She has a 12-year old daughter and an 10-year old son. Publishing over seven books her parenting books include The Care and Keeping of You, a three-book series and Guy Stuff. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
