Raising Teenage Boys - The Book
Raising Teenage Boys has 270 pages of what Parents really need to know about the often challenging teenage years. Once you’ve read the Mystery of the Teenage Brain, Dad’s especially will realise that you just can’t fix a brain that is going through a re-wiring process.
What’s required here is something totally different. If you’ve been trying harder and failing this is why. The 7 Keys to Effective Teen Parenting gives you the new strategies you need to make a potentially horrendous time more palatable for everyone.
You’ll find here a map for your son or sons to become healthy and confident young men. This is a Man-Making Manual for ALL families, whether facing real challenges or doing OK. All boys need something different at this time and included in this book is the It’s Time chapters - how you can give your son a gift for all time – A Rite of Passage.
It’s what many of the parenting experts and big thinkers of today are saying is missing – A Rite of Passage…. and here it is in one easy-to-read book.

"Raising Teenage Boys reveals the why and the how of two important gifts a boy needs to become a healthy man, aware creative parenting and a rite of passage. Healthy manhood is optional - this book delivers the man-making tools our boys desperately need." Geoff Price, Counsellor, Psychotherapist and Author of Puberty Boy and What They Don't Teach Men About Themselves.
"Not since Steve Biddulph have we heard such a refreshing voice trumpeting the cause for raising our boys in a more engaged and present manner. Andy Roy makes this complex and complicated journey simple, clear and exceptionally emotionally engaged. Andy sets the social context beautifully, addresses the functionality of the teenage brain, and offers simple and easy to apply strategies that put parents on the same page (even separated ones!) and take the conflict out of the parent-child relationship. If all boys were raised according to Andy's simple philosophy, I can't help feeling that the world would be a very different place for young men and those they love. This book is a rite of passage for all those parents traveling the journey of raising boys!" Heather Yelland, Director, SuperCamp Australia.
