Mother Tongue

Parenting Boys Part 1


Listen Later

This AMAZING time we live in offers so many opportunities for us and for our children. However, it also presents many unique challenges as well. Girls growing up now face specific difficulties, and boys do too. In this episode, we address some of the issues that accompany raising boys, and what we have seen in our sons’ lives. We also bring in a lot of great info from authors who have done far more research on the subject of boys.


We address issues like how to cultivate  respectful, strong, and kind boy by channeling his natural strengths (as opposed to simply suppressing all of their tendencies and making them feel like they are terrible all the time). We explore some fascinating psychology and hopefully help all of us raise boys who become men who are whole, respectful, humans who make this world a better place:).


Books that inspired us:


Calmer, Easier, Happier Boys // Noel Janis-Norton


Boys Adrift // Leonard Sax


Wild Things // Stephen James and David Thomas


The planner that was Felica’s high five: High Performance Planner // Brendon Buchard
