Viac o knihe

Society's confusing and often contradictory messages to girls and women make raising a daughter an especially daunting responsibility for any parent. Girls are born believing that they can do anything, but growing up they face new obstacles, as their bodies and social roles begin to change. In RAISING A DAUGHTER, Jeanne and Don Elium address these challenges and guide parents through each stage of a girl's development, from infancy through middle childhood, the teen years, and early adulthood. A bestseller since 1994, this newly revised parenting classic is indispensable for new and experienced parents alike. The Eliums offer a sensitive balance of insight and information for mothers and fathers who want to help their girls navigate within a culture that often seems determined to exploit them. More than just a practical exploration of what it means to have a daughter, RAISING A DAUGHTER is a compassionate study of what it means to come of age as a woman in today's world.
