What is the boy crisis?
It's a crisis of education. For the first time in American history, our sons will have less education than their dads.
It's a crisis of mental health. As boys become young men, their suicide rates go from equal to girls to six times that of young women.
It's a crisis of sexuality. Sex is a minefield for our sons. They're bombarded with mixed messages, afraid of being either too sensitive or not sensitive enough.
It's a crisis of fathering. Boys with less-involved fathers are more likely to drop out of school, drink, do drugs, become delinquent, and end up in prison.
It's a crisis of purpose. Boys' old senses of purposes, being a warrior, a leader, or a sole breadwinner, are fading. Many bright boys are experiencing a "purpose void", feeling alienated, withdrawn, and addicted to immediate gratification. Compounding this issue are addicting video games that lead to distraction and ADHD.
So, what is The Boy Crisis? A comprehensive blueprint for what parents, teachers, and policy-makers can do to renew our sons' sense of purpose to help them become men, fathers, and leaders worthy of our respect.

Beat book I’ve read in years
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
After the introduction and first two chapters, I was already recommending this book to my brother and his wife who just had a son, my wife, my parents who already have raised three kids, my in-laws who have already raised five (with one possible "failure to launch"), my friends, my Soldiers, my neighbors, parents on my kids' sports teams, random strangers, anyone who'll listen, etc.. Then, throughout the rest of the book, I couldn't stop talking about it and the revelations within.
This is one of my most valued books in my audible library (378 books with nearly 20% on psychology) and I'll listen to it over and over. I'm also purchasing the kindle version as well as a physical copy for referencing. I normally listen at 3x speed and had no issues with this narration; both authors narrate.

This book reinforces the importance of the paternal presence, one that comes naturally to any caring father, as this book encourages those in this position to embrace the paternal role.
It's vital to pay attention to this work.
