CLIQUES(ISBN=) 英文原版

　　In the first book to focus on the traumatic effects caused by
cliques in our schools, an acclaimed parenting-advice team offers a
fresh perspective and an innovative eight-step program to turn
around the culture of cruelty that torments all students.
　　There have always been “in crowds,” but today’s social pressures
force children into explosive, destructive, and even
life-threatening situations. No matter what role your child plays
in this schoolhouse drama–clique leader, victim, or innocent
bystander–this book is a must-read. Giannetti and Sagarese have
honed in on this little-understood phenomenon and come up with
insights that parents can use immediately. Read Cliques to
understand:
　　* Who the clique leaders are in your child’s school
　　* What you can do NOW to help your child avoid abuse
　　* Times during the day when cliques are visible to adults
　　* Where in your school you should start to lobby for change
　　* Why your “innocent bystander” may not be so innocent
　　* How you can rid your child of bully-like behavior
　　Cliques is more than just a manual for cheering your child on–it
brings hope and a truly comprehensive understanding of adolescent
society to the millions of families struggling against this
divisive force. Within its pages, you will find the tools you need
to make a difference.
