I have two sons 6 and 8 years old. My 6 year old likes to eat so to make his life easier (for himself) he wants to learn how to cook. So like the mom that I am I took him and his brother to the bookstore to look for children's cookbooks. Skimming the shelves a book "BOYS SHOULD BE BOYS, 7 Secrets to Raising Healthy Sons" by Meg Meeker, MD caught my eye. So, again, being the curious mom and I'm always looking for growth, I purchased the book.
Whoa, you know, I was able to see some of my father, my brother, my husband, my husband's father in what I read in the first chapter of this book. I was hooked. When it comes to raising children any additional rational, scientific explanations do help. The book even took me back to my childhood. I was the biggest tom boy and my personality was a lot like the male personalities described in this book, which made me think about my previous career in law enforcement(male dominated career) and my personality in general.
I would suggest that anyone who need to understand their father, husband, uncle or any male that you know, to buy this book.
BTW...my 6 and 8 year old made pancakes for dinner tonight(with a little help from mom).
God Bless
