Raising Girls Who Can Boss It Alison Longhurst

Are you slightly terrified of bringing up a girl? Then this is the book for you! Being made of sugar and spice and all things nice isn't going to cut it in the real world, so this book looks at what girls need to be made of to boss life and what parents can do to empower their daughters. Cutting through the experts' view, you get a sometimes humorous, sometimes serious, largely anecdotal view of parenting from the coalface. From gender stereotypes to sex, body image to bullying, it tackles all the big issues surrounding raising girls from birth to teens, giving insight and real proof on how you can bring up a strong and confident girl, without completely losing your mind. Woven with inspiring thoughts taken from a notebook entitled, Wishes and Dreams, the book embraces the dying art of parenting from the gut to raise girls who can grow wings and fly.
