About this listen

About those meltdowns, blowups, and one-word answers . . .

Some say that's just how boys are—prone to outbursts or sullenness. But what's behind these and other issues? Drawing from twenty-five years of counseling boys and working with parents, David Thomas sheds light on common emotional struggles, including anger, anxiety, and depression, and shares practical ways you can help your son be

Resourceful—equipped to work through his emotions in constructive ways

Aware—so that he better understands himself, including his strengths and weaknesses

Resilient—having the capacity to cope and feel competent

Empathetic—able to understand the feelings and experiences of others

Helpful also for grandparents, teachers, and anyone else who has a boy in their life, this book shows how a strong emotional foundation leads to a Christ-like sense of masculinity that will serve him well his whole life.

Amazing on many levels

I absolutely loved this book - really wish I'd discovered it earlier on my parenting journey as a mom of 2 boys. The author offers practical tools that are simple yet very effective on the daily basis. We started practicing regulation with my eldest, and on my word what a difference it made to both of us!
This is a must read for all parents, not just the boys' parents. It has just the right amount of scripture references and discussion not to feel overwhelming. Absolute gem that I'm now recommending to all my friends and family.

Like a little counseling session at Daystar!

Be prepared to laugh, cry, be inspired and challenged by this book. I'm implementing many of the suggestions already, and I can say with certainty those tools have helped me parent better. Thank you, David!

I might buy the hard copy.

I only buy hard copies if I think I’ll reference or reread a book. And there are so many good tips in here… I might just need the hard copy to look back on. Thank you for a great audio read.
