Rating:  - A must read for parents with boys of any age!
When it was recommended that I purchase this book, I had no idea of the pandora's box I would be opening when I began to read it. Recently divorced with 12 and 15 year old sons, I wanted to take inventory of their emotional well being after the seperation. This book has completely changed some of the views that I had about the way I should deal with my boys. It also opened my eyes to the effect that everyday life challenges has on young boys and teens. As a single mother, this book is my new "go ... Read More
Rating: - Boys need more than we think they do...
This book is an excellent insight into what really makes boys tick. Society has spent a lot of time toughening up our boys over the years when what they really need is a lot of love, support, understanding, and most importantly, a safe place to release their emotions.

Rating:  - Elaine's "Raising Cain" book review
Every parent, teacher, youth sports coach, and general public who interact with boys should read this book. After reading it, discuss with others who read it. Women, ask questions with trusted male friends.
Rating: - A Must Read
This is an insightful look into the male mind. My homeschool group is reading/discussing it right now and it has been eye opening to say the least. Although it has been painful to the point that most of the men in our group would not read it, it has still been a great tool in trying to understand our boys and men. I recommend this for reading to anyone who has a boy in their life.
Rating: - Raising a son
A big support to re-convince you that teaching emotions and love to your son is a bigger asset than teaching how to fight.
Good to know that it will pay off when he is older, as a happy man.
