Building Boys: Raising Confident, Responsible Young Men

from Mothers of Boys Survival Guide · host Flame Digital Communications

Raising boys into confident, responsible young men means learning when to step in—and when to let them figure it out. Author and mom of four sons Jennifer L. W. Fink returns to the MOBcast to talk about parenting boys through the middle and high school years. We discuss puberty, independence, school responsibilities, letting boys experience consequences, and why our role needs to shift from managing to coaching as they grow. Plus, a reassuring reminder for anyone currently living with a “man cub”: all that love, guidance, and teaching you poured into him when he was little? It’s still in there. 🎧 Building Boys: Raising Confident, Responsible Young Men   Listen on your favorite podcast app, watch on YouTube, or visit mothersofboys.life.
