Summary
Nigel Latta: Mothers and Sons
How to Raise a Man?
"I wrote this book because I want moms to be sure that they are not bad for boys. I also want to enable moms to be better informed when judging what is important and what is not about their sons, and to be more aware of the policies that are implemented through parenting advice, including my own policy. And especially when it comes to advice related to boys. You are not responsible for the whole boy's world, but you are responsible for your boy's world "- says in the book Nigel Latta, a New Zealand specialist in working with children with problem behavior and the author of several influential books on raising children.
Does your boy live in his angry world of silence, tantrums, snacks and games? Crime, alcohol, drugs - what to do when good boys go broke? How to be a cool mom? Why are boys fascinated by everything that can burn, blind or maim them? How do boys talk ... you don't understand them? - are some of the questions that the author deals with in this witty and necessary book.
