Mothers of Boys


I put up a while back that I was going to reading some books on raising boys. I started reading "Your Boy" and I could not put it down. It talks about raising a godly son in an ungodly world and it is AWESOME. She makes you feel okay about that the fact that you are not "supermom" and has great stories and advice on raising your son in a "real" man. It also gives you insight onto what kind of mother you are and what you can do to change how you parent to better benefit your son. She also writes a book called "Your Girl" and I bet it is just as wonderful so good news for mothers with girls. I HIGHLY recommend this book! I read it in two days and even read some to Sean (poor thing). I am keeping it forever as a reference so you will have to buy your own copies but I think it should be required reading material for all mothers with sons.

Thanks for the tip, I'm gonna look for this one. I love reading parenting books, they help so much.

I think this sounds like a great book. I've been looking for a good son book. Now, if you have any advice about a mother/son dance song (for 30 years down the line when my son gets married), I'm all ears!
