Welcome to Raising Boys Now!
I was told boys were easier than girls. Well, now I know what they really meant. Now that I see how our society expects boys to be raised I understand. They really meant that you can emotionally neglect boys, that they need less than girls, that you can skip teaching them basic life skills, and that you can write off their bad behavior. Ok, I agree, by that definition, boys are easier. But I don’t want to be that kind of parent, and lots of the parents I know want to do better by their boys. So here we go…
Raising Boys Now addresses the key challenges our boys face today to build skills and understanding in the gaps that are critical to our boys’ futures. Our platform and tools address these gaps in how our boys are socialized , and what we all stand to gain from teaching them.
In decades past these expectations didn’t exist, but they do now. Are you raising boys then or raising boys now?
