Building Better Boys | Part 2 Redefining Masculinity

Masculinity and what it is to be a boy is currently undergoing a transformation. In the era of #metoo the unwritten laws of boyhood and manhood are being questioned… by adults. Yet playgrounds are still awash with unhelpful and unhealthy peer-enforced standards of how boys are supposed to act – towards their friends, their peers, and towards females. The playground may be the most toxic place in the lives of many of our boys (and girls).

How do we raise brilliant, beautiful boys? How do we teach them to avoid the toxic cultural norms that have forced a rigidity around what it means to be male and ‘boxed’ them into a way of being that is, too often, not consistent with who their hearts tell them to be?

We are in the business – as parents – of growing strong, caring men from these little boys. But great men don’t simply appear. They are raised from boyhood by engaged, involved, caring parents.

This webinar provides 9 evidence-based solutions for every parent who wants to raise a son to become a great man with a wholesome, generous, and compassionate heart. You’ll discover:

The single most important thing every boy needs to be confident in showing his caring heart
The most effective, research-backed process to help our boys develop empathy
Essential keys to establishing boundaries and limits to guide boys successfully
And the one element missing from too many boys’ lives that will help them live lives of purpose and goodness
