Raising Cain: Protecting the Emotional Life of Boys
by Dan Kindlon, Michael Thompson Ph.D.
Answered prayer (6/3/2005)
Raising Cain was recommended to me by a Masters in Counseling student/ friend of mine. She was reading it for an independant study. I've shared with her my concerns about my 7 yr old son. She casually recommended me to read this book. So that night I went to the local library and found it. I have really enjoyed it. It has helped me reflect on many questions that I have had of the male gender: Childhood/ teenage friends, husband, brothers, nephews, etc. I'm an very thankful for the information this book shared with me.
I will also consider giving this book as a gift to new Moms.
I quite often pray that God will help me to be the best parent I can be to my children. I believe he led me to this book in answer of prayer.
Blessings,
M
