So You Want to Raise a Boy?
In writing this book, Dr. Skousen takes considerable comfort from the fact that there are no "experts" on the subject of raising boys. He comes about as close as anyone, since he is the father of five sons, three daughters - and the grandfather of fifty grandchildren.

In this book is his description of "boyhood" from birth to the age of twenty-one, a portrait of physical and emotional development, year by year, an outline of behavior patterns and problems and how parents should react to them.

He considers such matters as the boy's relation to the family, adjusting to school, stuttering, telling tales, and even such everyday problems as getting a boy to clean up his room or take a bath.

Inevitably there will be difficult boys and with this in mind Dr. Skousen gives helpful and knowledgable advice to parents about alcohol, drugs, and suggested preventative measures.

Without preaching and with a fine sense of humor and good common sense, Dr. Skousen has compiled a concrete guide to raising non-delinquent boys who are happy and well-adjusted.

Fully illustrated. This eBook includes the original index, footnotes, table of contents and page numbering from the printed format.
