Did Prince quit football club to practise the guitar? Either way, it's a good thing that not all boys fit the mould when it comes to 'manly' stereotypes. This highly readable guide gives simple yet sage advice on how to celebrate and care for boys who are more sensitive than others. Clearly explaining the harmful consequences of imposing norms on children, it provides helpful tips on how to bring up sensitive boys to embrace their individuality and be the best they can be.
 
Market: Parents, primary school teachers, secondary school teachers, child counsellors, social workers, child psychiatrists; all adults caring for boys who are sensitive or confused about their gender.
1. Some kids are more sensitive than others. 2. How are boys different? 3. Feeling different, feeling rejected and how that can reduce resilience. 4. Putting on invisible armour or shutting down. 5. Celebrating uniqueness and the impact of bullying. 6. Relationships that create resilience to be unique. 7. What they see and hear can significantly impact them. 8. Understanding Anxiety. 9. Believing the best about your child.
My hope is that a copy of this book will be everywhere where boys and those raising them can be found, and that it becomes THE gift to a family every time a boy is born.
