What’s happening to our Boys? Come and have a fun and informative PARENTING evening with well-known writer publisher and social researcher MAGGIE HAMILTON What kind of world are our boys to growing up in? Why are growing numbers of boys suffering body image and self-esteem problems? Why do they feel worthless without the latest branded toy, game or item of clothing? What makes soft drinks, snacks and fast foods so attractive? Why are they drawn to countless acts of violence on TV, in movies and in computer games? What impact does our highly sexualised climate, our emphasis on success and money, have on them as they grow? And why are so many boys vulnerable to cyber bullying and to porn? Childhood and teenage life is changing rapidly, leaving parents exhausted and confused as to how best to tackle the many issues they face. How does this high pressure environment affect a boy’s confidence, his values and aspirations, his wellbeing, his sense of community, his attitudes to girls and women? Maggie asks these and many other vital questions, as well as providing numerous tips for parents and educators on how to create a more promising future for our children. Topics include: � Marketing to boys � Video games � Body image � Self esteem � Secret lives � Growing up in a sexy world � Risk-taking � Alcohol and drugs � The way forward Date: ……………………………………..Thursday 31 May 2012 Time: ……………………………………..7.30—9pm Venue: …………………………………...Wadhurst Hall If you wish to attend, please complete the form below and return it to the Wadhurst Office by Monday 28 th May. ————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— I/we …………………………………………………..will be attending the ‘What’s happening to our Boys?
