Information on Bringing Up Boys from the publisher:

In the wake of a host of violent and tragic events involving boys and young men, many are asking what we as a society are doing wrong in the way we are raising our boys. Why are we so often failing to develop character in our sons? Why are so many boys in crisis? What qualities should we be trying to instill in young males?An entire generation of boys is growing up without a clear idea of what it means to be a man. But there is hope. In Bringing Up Boys, Dr. James Dobson, America's foremost authority on the family, provides a road map for raising healthy sons -- for shaping the next generation of responsible, God-honoring men. Drawing on his many years of experience as a child psychologist and family counselor, as well as the latest research, Dr. Dobson offers practical advice and encouragement for parents, teachers, counselors, youth leaders, and others involved in shaping the lives of boys.

With so much confusion about the role of men in our society, it's no wonder so many parents and teachers are a loss about how to bring up boys.

In Bringing Up Boys, Dr. James Dobson, America's most trusted expert on family issues, tackles these questions - and offers advice and encouragement based on a firm foundation of Biblical principles. A must-read book for parents, teachers, social workers, youth leaders, counselors - anyone involved in the challenge of turning boys into good men.
