Every parent wants their child to grow into a kind, capable and emotionally healthy adult. But right now, many of us are worried about our boys. With more than twenty years' experience as a developmental paediatrician, Dr Billy Garvey has supported thousands of families through their hardest moments. He sees boys who are anxious, angry, withdrawn or overwhelmed - and parents who desperately want to help but don't know where to begin. He knows there is no such thing as a 'bad' child - only children communicating a need. In Ten Things I Wish You Knew About Raising Boys, Dr Billy combines the latest research, powerful clinical stories and practical strategies to help you understand what's really driving your son's behaviour - and exactly how to respond. With Billy's guidance, you'll learn how to- - respond to big emotions with confidence - set boundaries without losing connection - build empathy, resilience and emotional regulation - support healthy identity and masculinity - strengthen the bond that protects mental health for life. Clear, compassionate and grounded in evidence, this is a hopeful roadmap for raising boys who feel safe, seen and understood - and who grow into emotionally strong, connected men.
