About this listen
On the surface, capable teenage boys may look lazy. But dig a little deeper, writes child psychologist Adam Price in He's Not Lazy, and you'll often find conflicted boys who want to do well in middle and high school but are afraid to fail and so do not try.
This audiobook can help you become an ally with your son as he discovers greater self-confidence and accepts responsibility for his future.

Story
As a parent or guardian of a teenaged boy, you understand the unique challenges that you have to overcome - your son’s lack of communication and poor listening skills, the mood swings, lack of discipline and, maybe, even some personal hygiene issues. But the same precious and loving son is still in that overgrown, clumsy body. You just must learn to understand that most of what you are dealing with is a normal part of going through puberty and maturing.

Story
As pediatrician and mother of two teenagers Cara Natterson explains, puberty starts in boys long before any visible signs appear, and that causes confusion about their changing temperaments for boys and parents alike. Often, they also grow quieter as they grow taller, which leads to less parent-child communication. But, as Natterson warns in Decoding Boys, we respect their increasing "need" for privacy, monosyllabic conversations, and alone time at their peril.

Worth it
I was worried about my 14 years olds constant complaining about school (he has mostly As) and his saying “How is any of this relevant to my life?” Very frustrating to say the least. I would try to find every answer I could to defend teachers and the system…thanks to this book I know have a whole new perspective on raising my son. It gets really pertinent around chapter 8 for me.

Wish I had listened/ read this book earlier.
I learnt a lot of the techniques mentioned in the book, the hard way - hard for myself and my teen boys. Still a lot of new and reliable info and techniques. The one manual most of us wish we had when the kids were born!! Thanks Adam for sharing your wisdom.

Quite Good
Definitely learned more about appreciating where my son is at in this weird teenage phase. That he may look like an adult but his brain is not an adult brain.
I was looking for more practical "do this" items (there were some) but I may have missed some in listening. I will likely give everything another listen to pick more up. Overall though it's quite good and worth the time.

He is not lazy is phenomenal
Thank you for making such fabulous tool for parents available. It’s amazing how we get stuck in our worlds and don’t even try to understand our own children. What an eye opener! All the problems my son was blamed for, were because of us parents not the child. Thank you for helping us to have fantastic father-son relationship!

Great info.
My son is 22 but I’m so glad I listened to this. Better late than never. Highly recommend for parents with pre-teens, teens (ideally) and young adults. I hung on every word.

Profound knowledge!
Absolutely ‘must’ for parents of boys. It has the science and research but also the exact tools and techniques that you as a parent can use.
