13th Boy

- A Memoir of Education & Abuse

Om 13th Boy

When parents send their children to school, they are trusting teachers and administrators with their most precious treasure. Sad to say, that trust is betrayed all too often. What can we say when well-known, elite and very expensive private schools promise an education that sharpens the mind, strengthens the body, and uplifts the soul--only to afflict some students with regret, pain, and shame that can last a lifetime or even drive a student to suicide? Stephen Fife has written a compelling, soul-baring narrative of his experience of education and abuse at the prestigious Horace Mann School in New York City. He also provides practical advice to parents who wish to protect their children and to recognize the signs of disturbance when abuse may be taking place.
