How to Raise a Gentleman Revised and Expanded

A Civilized Guide to Helping Your Son Through His Uncivilized Childhood

About this book

An invaluable resource for parents who hope their little boys will grow up to be the kind of men who know which fork to use, how to treat others, and generally make their parents proud.

How to Raise a Gentleman focuses on real-life topics such as: being a good sport, play dates, and - especially for boys - "personal habits: farting, belching, boogers, and scratching." The book includes:

  • Personal stories pertaining to each topic
  • Suggestions for the age at which a parent should introduce a child to certain rules
  • Helpful ideas in easy-to-remember phrases
  • And suggestions that parents can follow to "teach by example"
