attention to what I teach you, you’ll learn what you need to know.” Today, we are acutely aware that we don’t know all the answers that children will need, or even the questions they will ask. When Barry MacDonald speaks about boys' struggles at home and in school, the auditoriums are packed with parents and educators who know that simplistic answers don't work. Boys on Target includes the voices of parents and teachers who want to make a positive difference for the next generation. Drawing on Barry's twenty-five years of experience as an educator, counsellor, and international advocate for boys, Boys on Target provides practical and compassionate wisdom that can help us see boys' challenges anew. Whether you are a parent or teacher or an adult involved with mentoring boys in some other capacity, you will find the thoughtful, indepth discussions in this book enlightening and deeply nourishing. --- from the publisher |
