Riassunto

Adolescent boys face unique and often frightening challenges in today's society, and mothers are rightfully concerned. As their young sons become adolescent risk-takers, mothers may feel frustrated or ineffective. Dr. Ann Caron has written a reassuring and helpful guide that reflects the realities of life today, giving mothers a new understanding of their sons and confidence in themselves as parents.
Many topics related to adolescent boys are covered, including gender differences, physical changes, the struggle for self-identity, sexual overtones of the mother-son relationship, communicating with sons, causes of young male violence and ways to buffer the effects of society's macho messages, school issues, athletics and after-school activities, concerns about sex and sexuality, and fostering positive attitudes toward women.
Following the pattern she established so successfully in her previous book for mothers of adolescent girls, "Don't Stop Loving Me," Dr. Caron talked to mothers and teenage boys to learn firsthand their thoughts, experiences, and concerns. In Strong Mothers, Strong Sons she provides fresh insights into male adolescent development.
