Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ever since the publication of Raising Cain- Protecting the Emotional Life of Boys(in hardcover in 1999), parents and the public have been aware that adolescent boys were at risk just as much as their sisters. If Ophelia needed to be revived, Hamlet also needed protection from the "culture of cruelty" in which young boys found themselves. And as more care was taken to support the dreams and aspirations of young women, we sometimes find that their brothers are floundering - with recent statistics revealing that the so-called disadvantaged girls are actually attending and graduating from colleges in greater numbers than boys. The Complete Idiot's Guide to Raising Boystakes readers from the birth of their sons to the day they head off to college. Raising sons isn't all bleak news - in fact, it can be joyous and exhilarating for both moms and dads - and this book is as much an appreciation as it is a hands-on parenting guide. In warm, wise words, the husband-and-wife authors, parents of two sons themselves, explore all that is different and the same, precious and at times irritating, about the boys in their lives.
