Girls Will Be Girls: Raising Confident and Courageous Daughters by Teresa Barker, Joann Deak

3.0

This book had a lot of good information - some of it new and some of it a good articulation of what I remember from my own childhood and adolescence. Her penchant for naming stages/issues/situations and labeling endlessly gets a little tiresome and her lack of supporting documentation/evidence is a concerning, but on the whole it's a good book to get any parent of daughters in a good mind frame to tackle the task. I like her pragmatic approach and validation of the different social/emotional stages. It makes me realize that every phase has it's reasons and benefits.
