So You Want To Raise A Boy

W. Cleon Skousen's "So You Want to Raise a Boy" is an excilent guide to parents with boys. My mother used the book as an aid in raising me and I and my wife have used it in raising our two sons. It gives a clear picture of the healthy development of a boy from birth to age 21. In the book, Skousen, a former police chief and FBI man, also talks about the mistakes that can be made along the way. As a specialist in juvenile delequency and a successful parent of 5 boys and 3 girls, Skousen shows both the right things to do and the mistakes that are made by all too many.

We have raised 5 boys and this is the book we always turn to

Skousen truely knows what boys do. We have had So You Want To Raise A Boy on our shelves for over 20 years and refer to it regularly. When times are tough and I can't figure things out with my son, I go to "The Book" and Skousen helps me understand the characteristics of my son at his particular stage of development.Year by year he tells me about the traits and characteristics of a baby, boy and then a young man. His advice is right on and has made our life much better. Four are grown and beginning families of their own and we are still good friends.
