Boys have always been boys - restless, impulsive, excitable, obsessive, aggressive - but in contemporary society their boyishness seems to be a problem. 21st century boys often fall victim to solitude, apathy, depression, substance abuse and extreme violence. In our technology-rich, consumer-driven, competitive world, raising boys has never been more difficult. Sue Palmer looks at boys' development from birth to adolescence, considering how we can help the next generation of young men grow up balanced, happy and able to contribute to society. Includes practical advice on: How to minimize the effects of learning disorders. Why play is an important part of learning. How to avoid the dangers of television and computer addiction. What parents and schools can do about an education system that is failing boys.
