Features: The penetrating thoughts expressed in this book will become a window and a key to opening the hearts of boys! This book is the result of over 20 years of dedicated research by Pollock, a professor at Harvard Medical School, which has caused a sensation across the United States. The study delves deeply into the "silent crisis" of boys in our generation: why so many boys are discouraged, isolated, orphaned, engage in early relationships, and even resort to drugs and crime? How do they face the inevitable separation traumas of growing up, poor academic performance, lack of companionship, and sexual issues? And how can we, as their parents and teachers, create a rich, resilient, confident, and joyful environment for them to grow and face challenges? During the research process, Pollock challenges traditional notions of boyhood and, through extensive data analysis and psychological assessments, uncovers the hidden world within boys. This helps our boys become more confident, emotionally richer, and more accepted by society. For any growing boy, self-awareness is the first step toward the future, and understanding our boys is something we must do.
