Rachel Simmons is a New York Times best-selling author and the founding director of the Girls' Leadership Institute. The Curse of the Good Girl looks into the phenomenon of the glass ceiling placed on girls who attempt to live up to the standard of being "good". Simmons then shows how parents can help build girls' self-esteem and give them the strength to pursue their goals.©2009 Rachael Simmons (P)2009 Recorded Books, LLC Gender Studies Parenting & Families Child Psychology Developmental Psychology Psychology & Mental Health Social Sciences Psychology Relationships

This book is absolutely fantastic! I have a 12 yr old daughter who is struggling with her friendships and listening to the book helped me understand "girl culture" as I never did before. I felt like I should have been taking notes throughout the entire book. Great advice for helping my daughter and myself to become more emotionally aware and authentic in our relationships with others. I highly recommend this book!

I listened to this with my 11-12 year old on the way to school. This was a great book to listen to together, we would pause it and have conversations. As a mom, it reminded me of things I need to teach her, but would not have otherwise. I'm thankful for this author! great book!!!

That was my second round and I’m going to do a third—and I don’t even have kids! I’m just trying to figure out how to empower myself, and how I’ve allowed and created the opposite as a 40 year-old-woman. Society really tries to shhhhhh us, then we do it to each other. Great book that analyzes, reflects, and leaves you inspired to help create real “girl power.”

This book is a good resource for bullying, indirect aggression of all sorts, as well as, the power of social expectations, ostracism, & their effects across the life span focusing on female adolescence & pre-adolescence but applicable to, essentially, anyone. Lots of insights.

GOOD WRITINGS ON SOCIAL AGGRESSION

I really liked Odd Girl Out. I was teaching when I first read that book, and I had to rethink all my assumptions about the teenage girls I was teaching. This is a great follow on book with practical techniques to help girls in growing their own voice. The approach seems quite natural and I see it as distinct from assertiveness training, which is all about having women learn to act more like men. I wish I had read this when it first came out.

I wish I had read this years ago
