Book Reviews of American Medical Association Boy's Guide to Becoming a Teen
Book Review: Good as a reference except certain pages. But guide you son!
Summary: 3 Stars
We were looking for a book for our son similar to The Care & Keeping of You: The Body Book for Girls (American Girl Library) that we bought for our daughter, and this book seems to be one of the best. We bought 2, one for our son and one for a realtive, but when we received it, we found that there are materials on some pages that are objectionable or against our regligion. We returned one copy and kept one.
Overall the book is a good reference except the masturbate part. It implies that it is not normal to not masturbate, and the only negative to masturbating a lot is not having time for other things. Medical materials note that masturbating a lot can negatively affect the bowel movement and other organs in the body, too.
The book also talk about oral and anal sex, which might not be appropriate to your early teens. We plan to guide our son through these objectionable pages.
