Synopsis

Straight-up, hard-hitting advice on parenting teenage boys

Adolescent boys can be difficult to understand – barely communicating, isolating themselves, suggestable to drink and drugs. It’s no surprise that parents worry about their sons growing up and how they’ll turn out – and look for help to understand what their boys are going through.

Celia Lashlie has the answers. After years of working in the prison service she knows what can happen when boys make the wrong choices. She also knows what it’s like to be a parent. Throughout her years working as a researcher and social commentator, Celia has talked to hundreds of boys – what she found was surprising, amusing, and in some cases, frightening.

In this funny, honest, no-nonsense book, Celia Lashlie reveals what goes on in the world of boys, and with clarity and insight, she offers parents – especially mothers – practical and reassuring advice on raising their boys to become good, loving, articulate men.
