Description:
Pages: 256

In adolescence, boys and girls distinguish themselves, among other things, by their

communication style: the former don't talk, and the latter talk a lot. With research data

and focus-group input, Shaffer and Gordon, an educator and a clinical social worker,

respectively, solidly establish the social elements in which these behaviors take root. In

Why Boys Don't Talk, the authors describe how the media, culture, and history all maintain

the idea that in order to become men, boys have to be tough and hide their emotions;

therefore, they become emotionally disconnected. To fix that, parents need to pursue

connections and communication. Girls, on the other hand, are expected to connect and to

seek relationships with others. Add to that gender inequalities and the distorted portrait

of women in the media, and girls face many challenges in their path to self-knowledge.

Parents need to help a teen daughter stay connected to her true self and not give in to

social pressure. Why Girls Talk succeeds better in speaking to parents by giving them

sound advice and strategies. Libraries should know that Why Boys Don't Talk was first

published in 2000 by the Mid-Atlantic Equity Consortium as Why Boys Don't Talk and Why We

Care and is not revised here. For specific communication strategies in parenting, see Haim

Ginott's Between Parent and Child: The Bestselling Classic That Revolutionized

Parent-Child Communication. Why Girls Talk is recommended for parenting collections in

large public libraries.
