The Truth Behind Girl World

A review Queen Bess&Wanna Bees By Rosalind Wiseman



Being a good parent is a challenging full-time job,and just when you thought you had it down packed your sweet,benign,carefree little angle becomes a vicious ,smart-mouth &image

obsessed demons. You soon lose her to her “clique”, your unable to reach her because she thinks all the answers to her problems are in teen magazines. She loses intrest in family fun night she would much rather talk on the phone and get all the hot gossip, she no longer likes shopping with you ,you become lame & annoying . Why Is she shutting you out? In Queen bees &Wannabees by Roslind Wiseman readers learn what its like being a teenage girl

nowadays. The struggles of body image ,the social class system and so much more.




Success is a major accomplishment ,its a reward for all the hard work you put into something. You sacrifice so much and once you put the blood sweat and tears into something you being to become obsessed with being successful. While reading Queen bees&Wannabee I learned about the extremes girls go to to reach their goals of being “Miss Congeniality””girls are intimidate or envious of her”(80,Wiseman) ,girls look at each other as the opponent like in art of war “
Maneuvering with an army is advantageous; with an undisciplined multitude, most dangerous. If you set a fully equipped army in march in order to snatch an advantage, the chances are that you will be too late. “ they do whatever it takes to push the next girl down too become number one. My goal in life is to be someone that makes a difference in the world. In Queen bees&wannabees all the girls a striving to be somebody important.


I will be told I cant make a difference and I'm to small to do something amazing happen. “mean girls break down the self esteem of other girls to intermediate them “(94 wiseman). People(the queen bees) will say and do anything to abase someone.




The way Wiseman wrote her book it was more like a handbook with evidence

behind everything she had stated by including things that real girls of different ages had to say about every topic she also had parents to share their hardships of raising a teenage girl. I think that aspect made the book more interesting. Each chapter had a focus points and scenarios

As you progress in each chapter the scenarios become more serious. Some times Wiseman can get circumlocution, her style of writing is realistic and she just calls it like she sees it. When she says “for the girl whose popularity is base on fear and control,think of a combination of the Queen of Hearts in Aice in wonderland call her Queen Bee “ she gives the the name queen bee a rash belligerent meaning .




After I read Queen bees&Wannabees I understood that parents aren’t nagging you just to do it they have good intentions. Parents aren’t prefect but they want to see you be successful and happy. No matter what you do wrong or how loud they yell at you they are doing it all out of love.

I think all parents of teenage girls should read this book because sometimes the forget how much pressure and stressed girls are put under by their peers. I think teenage girls should also read this because it reminds them that parents are trepidation the mistakes they could make and how it could influence their lives. I would read more of her work because she is blunt about everything she writes and she gives the pros and cons to everything. When girls hit girl world there is no turning back and even though your daughter might push you away these are the times she needs you the most. The best way to guide your daughter thought girl world is to let her know you will always be there for her.

 
Queen bees and Wanna bees

by:Rosalind Wiseman




Queen bees and wanna bees is more like a handbook for parents to understand their teenage daughters and understand why they shut them out so much. The author describes different situations that teen girls face and how the girls feel about these situations. So far the book is pretty entertaining because I can relate to some of the topics that the author is talking about. I like how different girls put their stories in the book. The theme in this book is trust because parents should trust that their daughters will do right if if they have given them the right tools and lessons.This book also tells how belligerent girls can be.
