Product Description
Something scary is happening to boys today. From kindergarten to college, American boys are, on average, less resilient and lessambitious than they were a mere twenty years ago. The gender gap incollege attendance and graduation rates has widened dramatically. WhileEmily is working hard at school and getting As, her brother Justin isgoofing off. Hes more concerned about getting to the next level in hisvideogame than about finishing his homework. Now, Dr. Leonard Saxdelves into the scientific literature and draws on more than twentyyears of clinical experience to explain why boys and young men arefailing in school and disengaged at home. He shows how social,cultural, and biological factors have created an environment that isliterally toxic to boys. He also presents practical solutions, sharingstrategies which educators have found effective in re-engaging theseboys at school, as well as handy tips for parents about everything fromhomework, to videogames, to medication.
