Description
"The behaviour of boys is a social issue that affects us all. Boys are three to ten times more likely than girls to be labelled with a disability, a psychiatric disorder, as having special needs, to receive psychiatric drugs and to get in trouble with the police. In this unique text, Sami Timimi argues that this crisis reflects a fundamental ambivalence that Western culture has towards children, which affects boys in particular." "Using material from diverse sources, including sociology, psychology, medicine, anthropology, history, philosophy, psychoanalysis and personal experience, Naughty Boys discusses how Western society's political, social and economic value system is bad for children and families. The author argues that when it comes to the important task of child rearing, people in the West have much that they could learn from the developing world. This important and timely text will be of interest to all professionals who deal with children, including psychiatrists, counsellors and psychotherapists, psychologists, teachers, paediatricians, social workers and nurses."--Jacket.
