Lost Boys: How Our Sons Turn Violent and how We Can Save Them

Shows why young men & boys have become increasingly vulnerable to violent crime & how lack of adult supervision & support poses a real & growing threat to our children's basic safety. For these vulnerable boys, violence can become normal, the "right thing to do." Fortunately, parents can spot troubled boys & take steps to protect their families from violence if they know what signs to look for -- lack of connection, masking emotions, withdrawal, silence, rage, trouble with friends, hyper-vigilance, cruelty toward other children & even animals -- all warning signs that every parent, peer, teacher, & public official can recognize & report.Garbarino, James is the author of 'Lost Boys: How Our Sons Turn Violent and how We Can Save Them', published 2002 under ISBN 9780756756352 and ISBN 0756756359.
