Help your Boys Succeed (The Essential Guide for Parents)

Description

Figures are published each year which demonstrate that boys are currently underachieving in education in comparison with girls.

This book gives parents the full picture and includes extracts from interviews carried out with boys. Those boys give their opinions on what they think the issues are and their ideas for possible solutions.

There are also strategies covering the following areas:

• recognising and countering low self-esteem
• understanding emotional intelligence in boys
• developing independence
• developing and continuing to encourage a love of reading
• considering  the way we talk to boys and how we can improve relationships by changing the way we interact.

And many more crucial topics.
