Synopsis
Everyone knows that boys are falling behind in education. Largely left out of the discussion are parents of boys, who are most aware that their bright, eager sons hit an invisible wall somewhere near fourth grade, after which they become disengaged, discouraged, and disaffected. There are dozens of books on underachieving boys, but most parents brave enough to lift one off the shelf are instantly intimidated by the footnotes, graphs, case studies, and academic-speak addressed almost entirely to educators. What about the average guilt-ridden, frustrated mother or father of an underachieving boy?Jump-Starting Boys is the first book on the market that empowers parents, helping them reclaim the duties and rewards of raising their children and navigate the influences of school and media. Filled with reassurance and support, the authors turn fear and guilt into can-do confidence. Through easy tips and action list sidebars, this is the most practical, readable book on the topic., Everyone knows boys are falling behind girls in education. And that has lots of people, especially educators and politicians, busy pointing fingers and engaging in loud discussions. Largely left out of this discussion are parents of boys, who are perhaps more aware than anyone that their bright, eager sons hit an invisible wall somewhere near fourth grade, after which they go from engaged to unengaged, discouraged and disaffected. By puberty, too many seem determined to be slackers in school regardless of parental pleas, incentives or disciplinary measures. There are more than a dozen books on underachieving boys, but most parents brave enough to lift one off a shelf are instantly intimidated by the footnotes, graphs, case studies, academic-speak and list of remedies addressed almost entirely to educators. What about the average guilt-ridden, frustrated mother or father of an underachieving boy? Someone who wants to know in plain language what's behind this trend and what they can do about it? What about readers who crave positive support, not political shrillness? Most existing books on "the boy problem" make parent readers feel even more helpless than the school system and their job demands have made them feel already. Jumpstarting Boys is the first book on the market that empowers parent readers, give them a sense of being able to reclaim the duty and rewards of raising their children and assuring them they really can mitigate and/or work with the influences of school, media and more. Instead of footnotes, graphs and case studies, Jumpstarting Boys has heart-warming true stories and take-action checklists. Filled with reassurance and support, the authors turn fear and guilt into can-do confidence. Through easy tips and action list sidebars, this is the most practical, readable book on the topic, and positivity is the watchword. Fascinating findings from original surveys commissioned amongst education and psychology professionals, show successful parents and boys who beat the odds. In the author's own words, "Our book points to reading confidence as a keystone to educational success, which (we emphasize) in turn increases one's chances of a more stable, satisfying life. Where we touch on school issues, we do so from a parent's perspective; we inform parents what is going on and offer suggestions on how they can contribute positively without stepping on teachers' or librarians' toes. We also explore how parents can tap community resources to help improve their sons' attitude and motivation, and how they can help them in their transition to adulthood." Finally, a book that truly targets ordinary parents and helps them work with their sons to ensure they will be all they can be., Everyone knows that boys are falling behind in education. Largely left out of the discussion are parents of boys, who are most aware that their bright, eager sons hit an invisible wall somewhere near fourth grade, after which they become disengaged, discouraged, and disaffected.

Jump-Starting Boys is the first book on the market that empowers parents, helping them reclaim the duties and rewards of raising their children and navigate the influences of school and media.

Seller’s pricing was spot on and when I received it, it was in good condition. Seller actually messaged me when they shipped it (I really appreciated that).

The seller met two out of three categories I look for when judging my purchasing experience: how well it was packaged, how quickly it was shipped, and how properly it was described; this seller provided prompt shipping and an accurate description, but failed when it came to packaging. The item arrived in a plastic bag without any reinforcement or protection whatsoever and suffered dinged corners on multiple fronts.
