Customer Reviews

A great read for boy moms!

This is a joy to read! Monica goes beyond just identifying the characteristics we want to see in our sons and addresses HOW we can instill these values in them through our own parenting choices. The questions and resources at the end of each chapter are especially helpful to pinpoint parenting strengths and weaknesses in each area as well as to tailor the suggestions to the unique needs of each family and each child. The book is made especially relatable and encouraging through the use of Monica's own parenting anecdotes and memoirs to illustrate it all.
