Here’s a list of all the books mentioned in this episode, complete with an Amazon buy link and quotes from the episode.
Boys Adrift
Buy on Amazon"Yes, absolutely I think it's such an illuminating story And I've seen this so much in my own practice as a family doctor now for more than 30 years So many boys want to be heroes They want to be seen as heroes They want to see themselves as heroes in their own eyes You know, I spoke some years ago at a conference on juvenile justice statewide conference in New Mexico And the topic was Boys A Drift, the title of one of my books"
The Collapse of Parenting
Buy on Amazon"And to those parents, you say I would say I would come back to the central key point that I try to make in the new edition of my book, The Collapse of Parenting, which is that central paradox of American parenting right now Which is that parents are spending more time and more money on their kids than parents have ever done before But the results are worse than they have ever been American kids are more likely to be anxious and depressed than they have ever been They are in worse shape physically than they have ever been They are less fit than they have ever been They are heavier than they have ever been"
Why Gender Matters
Buy on Amazon"So there are different factors affecting boys and girls—that's why I wrote a book called Boys Adrift and a book for girls called Girls on the Edge. I also wrote a book called Why Gender Matters."
The Magician's Nephew Color Gift Edition
Buy on Amazon"You know, 70 years ago, C.S. Lewis wrote this book for kids, 'The Magician's Nephew,' and he said, 'The trouble about trying to make yourself stupider than you really are is that you very often succeed.'"
Irreversible Damage
Buy on Amazon"Abigail Shrier wrote a book about this recently, 'Bad Therapy.' But more and more the schools—especially, I will say, the girls' schools—want the kids to discuss trauma!"
