Book Review of Bringing Up Boys: Practical Advice and Encouragement for Those Shaping the Next Generation of Men

reviewed on + 9 more book reviews


Despite what the cover says, this book offers very little practical advice. There is no advice for day-to-day issues. And the only encouragement is for those that fit Dobson's model of the good family. We can't turn back time. I'd rather learn how to raise good children in today's culture, than continually bemoan the fact that life in the U.S. just isn't what it used to be.
