Decoding Boys - New science behind the subtle art of raising sons

It covers everything from relationships, social media, friendships, school, porn, drugs, video games, physical and mental changes.

She argues that it's up to parents to improve their communication with their son and help him prepare for life as an adult, armed with the knowledge needed to become a well-rounded human being. This book looks at the dramatic shifts boys face physically, mentally, emotionally and socially, filtered through the Dr Natterson's medical and child development lens. 'Decoding Boys debunks the widespread myth of the inscrutable teenage boy.

Decoding Boys is clear, wise, and eye-opening. If you're raising a boy, you need this brilliant book.' - Lisa Damour, PhD, New York Times bestselling author of Untangled and Under Pressure 'Decoding Boys is the ultimate guide to help you understand and raise your boys with acceptance and perspective.
