520    "Building Boys offers tips and tools that parents can use 
       to help boys move beyond persistent gender stereotypes to 
       full humanity. Understanding, acknowledging, and 
       respecting male development is key to facilitating boys' 
       growth and making the world a safer place for humans of 
       all genders."--|cProvided by publisher. 
520    Confounded by rapidly changing gender norms, today's 
       parents are attempting to raise kind, compassionate, 
       emotionally sensitive boys in a society that 
       simultaneously rewards stereotypical masculinity and is 
       increasingly hostile to boys. Making the world safer for 
       women and girls is not the only reason to rethink our boy 
       raising practices: current culture harms our boys too. 
       Fink offers rules that parents can use to guide their 
       parenting choices: guidelines that are as relevant to 
       parenting toddlers as they are to parenting teenagers. --
