Let Boys Be Kids First: Helping Boys to Be Who They Are and Feel What They Feel - Paperback

by Raelene S. Weaver (Author)

In our fast-paced culture where boys get mixed messages about what it means to be a man, Raelene S. Weaver, licensed marriage and family therapist, asks us, as a collective society, to focus on our boys being good human beings.

Ms. Weaver calls for a New Boy Code where boys are defined more by their character rather than their performance. She makes the case that little boys, have the same emotional capacity as little girls, and it's a strength, not a weakness.

From her early years as a tom boy to later in life reaching the TEDx stage, this introvert weaves storytelling and counseling, with exercises for the reader to do, into a passionate plea to raise our consciousness about how we treat boys emotionally and to make positive social change.
