In Boys Should Be Boys, one of our most trusted authorities help parents restore the delights of boyhood and enable today's boys to become the mature, confident, and thoughtful men of tomorrow. Boys will always be boys-rambunctious, adventurous, and curious, climbing trees, building forts, playing tackle football, and pushing their growing bodies to the limit as part of the rite of passage into manhood. But today our sons face an increasingly hostile world that doesn't value high-spirited, magical nature of boys. In a collective call to let our boys be boys, Dr. Meg Meeker explores the secrets to boyhood, including:
- Why rules and
boundaries are crucial-and why boys feel lost without them.
- How the outdoors is
still the best playground, offering the sense of adventure that only
Mother Nature can provide.
- The essential ways
to preserve a boy's innocence (and help him grow up).
- The pitfalls moms
and dads face when talking to their sons.
- Why moody and
rebellious boys are not normal-and how to address such behavior.
- How and when the
“big” questions in life should be discussed: why he is here, what
his purpose is, and why he is important.
Parents are blessed
with institution and heart, but raising sons is a daunting
responsibility. This uplifting guide makes the job a little easier.
