Description
The Wonder of Boys is a thought-provoking book that challenges the way we raise our sons. Michael Gurian offers practical guidance on how to channel boys' natural tendencies for competition and aggression, and how to provide them with the support they need to become strong, responsible, and sensitive men.
By exploring the needs of boys, including the importance of family, mentors, and community, Gurian provides a nuanced understanding of how to help boys overcome the challenges they face, such as gang activity, sexual misconduct, and crime. This insightful book is a valuable resource for parents, mentors, and educators who want to make a positive difference in the lives of the boys they care about.
