Boys Should Be Boys: 7 Secrets to Raising Healthy Sons

What are little boys made of? It used to be frogs, snails, and puppy dog tails, but today it is MTV, ADD, and STDs. So how do parents raise their sons to be respectful and responsible young men despite a toxic culture that relentlessly undermines masculine virtues such as moral strength, self-restraint, and respect for women? By letting boys be boys. Dr. Meg Meeker, bestselling author of Strong Fathers, Strong Daughters, follows up her success with Boys Should Be Boys–a guide for parents on how to raise a strong son in these turbulent times. Taking readers on a journey from boyhood to manhood, Boys Should Be Boys delves into the mind, heart, and spirit of boys, showing parents how they can make a difference between the boy their son is and the man he will become. “Boys will be boys”—Dr.Meeker shows why it is not just an expression, it’s a necessity.

“Dr. Meeker provides insight, information, and, ultimately, inspiration….Boys Should Be Boys once again demonstrates that the most important element in wisdom is common sense.”
—Michael Medved, nationally syndicated radio host,author of Right Turns

“Filled with inspirational vignettes, Boys Should Be Boys empowers parents to stay involved and protect their sons’ innocence. It’s a wonderfully written and eye-opening book—a must-read.”
— Neil Bernstein, Ph.d. author of There When He Needs You

    Dr. Meg,
    I Have just been reading Boys Should be Boys and Strong Daughters, Strong Fathers. They are SOOOOO excellent!!! THANK you for saying what needed to be said. You said so much that was in my heart but I didn’t quite know how to put in words.
    I am also an author, but still kind of new at the whole thing. I come from the nutrition angle – My book is Busy Moms 10 Minute Guide to a Healthy Happy Family.
    Thanks so much for writing these books. Bless you BLESS YOU!!!
    Nancy
