Description

The Last Boys Picked: Helping Boys Who Don't Play Sports Survive Bullies and Boyhood Boys who don't fit traditional sports roles are often overlooked and bullied for being different. In a society that emphasizes physical strength, aggression, and competitiveness, these boys face unique social and emotional challenges. Dr. Janet Sasson Edgette and Beth Margolis Rupp explore the experiences of these boys through in-depth interviews, clinical case studies, and examples from popular literature. Their book offers practical advice for parents, teachers, coaches, and caregivers on how to identify and support these boys, helping them build resilience and healthy self-esteem. With compassionate and empowering guidance, The Last Boys Picked provides valuable insights into the social and emotional hurdles faced by these boys, and offers actionable steps to help them navigate the challenges of growing up.
