Best Friends, Worst Enemies by Michael Thompson

Questions about children's friendships and social development consume parents. Is my child popular? What if she isn't? What if she is being excluded from that group? What if he is a bully or a victim? When should I intervene, and how? "Best friends, worst enemies" balances anecdotes and theory to examine the social world of children, addressing such issues as: the developmental stages of children's friendships, cliques, bullying, popularity, best friends, social cruelty, pecking order, dating, and the role of parents and schools. It also examines the difference between friendship and popularity, and the different ways that boys and girls deal with intimacy and commitment.
Michael Thompson is a leading child psychologist based at Harvard who conducts workshops across the United States. He is co-author of the New York Times bestseller Raising Cain. He lives in Arlington, Massachusetts. Catherine O'Neill Grace is the author of numerous non-fiction books for children. She lives in Waltham, Massachusetts.
