About this book

The tools you need to foster a positive, supportive relationship with your son! Concerns about self-esteem, peer pressure, and behavior can make raising healthy, happy boys seem overwhelming--but it doesn't have to be. With the help of The Conscious Parent's Guide to Raising Boys, you can encourage open communication with your son. With patience and everyday mindfulness, you can guide your boys from childhood through those challenging developmental years. This easy-to-use guide explains how you can help your son:

  • Communicate effectively with others
  • Strengthen self-image and resist peer pressure
  • Define and exhibit acceptable behavior
  • Keep their commitments to family, community, and themselves

Family therapist Jennifer Costa provides you with the information and support you need for parenting with flexibility, resilience, and love so you can create a calm, happy environment for raising well-adjusted, confident boys.
