Acerca de este título
Girls today are motivated and hardworking. In school, they regularly outperform boys. But beneath their confident exteriors too often lies a brittle sense of self. Girls are much more likely to experience anxiety and depression than boys, and that gap is increasing.
In Girls on the Edge, physician and psychologist Leonard Sax identifies four key threats to girls’ success: sexual identity, social media, obsessions, and environmental toxins. Sax provides practical advice on how to improve the odds for your daughter. He offers tips on everything from figuring out how much time on Instagram is too much, to helping your daughter choose which sports to play, to finding female-centered activities that provide good role models and opportunities for growth.
As urgent as it is inspiring, Girls on the Edge illuminates the way to ensure our daughters grow up to be independent, confident women.
Reseñas de la crítica
The best book about the current state of girls and young women in America.—Caitlin Flanagan, The Atlantic
Packed with advice and concrete suggestions for parents, Girls on the Edge is a treasure trove of rarely seen research on girls, offering families guidance on some of the most pressing issues facing girls today. Dr. Sax's commitment to girls' success comes through on every page.—Rachel Simmons, author of Odd Girl Out,The Curse of the Good Girl, and Enough As She Is
Crucial. . . . Parents of tween and teen girls would do well to check this book.—The Chronicle of Higher Education
Dr. Sax once again combines years of experience with compelling research and common sense to intelligently challenge the status quo of what it means to raise a healthy daughter. Girls on the Edge offers skills parents can incorporate to feel more competent with our girls and young women.—Florence Hilliard, director of the Gender Studies Project, University of Wisconsin-Madison
The world is way different from what it was a couple of years ago; this is essential reading for parents and teachers, and one of the most thought-provoking books on teen development available.—Library Journal
Fortunately, [Leonard] Sax is up to more here than pronouncing young women irrevocably doomed. . . . Girls on the Edge doesn't dramatize the self-destructive behavior it describes . . . [and it] speaks exclusively to parents and offers concrete ways to help their daughters cultivate stronger personal identities.—Slate.com/Double X
Turn off your cell phones and computers and read this book! You will connect with your daughter in new ways, and she will thank you.—Rabbi Sandy Eisenberg Sasso, author ofGod's Paintbrush and In God's Name
Leonard Sax brings together a rare combination of psychoanalytic training with a deep empathy for girls and their stories in this important book. His argument that girls are struggling to find their centers will resonate and his recommendations for how to locate them will inspire.—Courtney E. Martin, author ofPerfect Girls, Starving Daughters
Dr. Sax's deep commitment to girls developing a positive 'sense of self' is woven into the fabric of this book. Girls on the Edge is a must-read for every parent of a girl as well as for every adult who teaches girls.—Dr. Mary Seppala, head of school,Agnes Irwin School, Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania
Leonard Sax sounds a crucial warning to parents of teenage girls. No matter how attentive and savvy you are, the lives of girls today are like nothing you ever knew. The obsessions are worse, nastiness is rampant (especially on the web), drinking is up, and sexuality keeps creeping down the age ladder. 'Girls need girl-specific interventions,' Sax insists, and Girls on the Edge explains why-and also how to do it.—Mark Bauerlein, PhD, professor, Emory University
