Our Top Tips for Parenting Boys {Best Of}

<p>How do we raise boys in this fabulously challenging time? In this episode, we revisit our very favorite pieces of knowledge on the subject by combining our two most popular discussions about it. We address issues like how to cultivate respectful, strong, and kind boys by channeling their natural strengths (as opposed to simply suppressing all of their tendencies and making them feel like they are terrible all the time). We explore some fascinating psychology and hopefully help all of us raise boys who become men who are whole, respectful, humans who make this world a better place:).</p> <p>We also eview the four pillars of connection, getting outside, sleep, and nutrition, and we tackle the challenges and opportunities that boys face at school and learning. We address the research on screen time and boys’ brains, and give you all sorts of tips to make screen time a pleasant activity with boundaries instead of an unlimited source of distraction and dependency. We have such an AMAZING opportunity as parents to really create a community where they can thrive with their own natural strengths, and we can help create a world where boys are taught to have emotional intelligence and access their internal world with confidence and love.
