Sensible advice and caring encouragement on raising boys from the nation’s most trusted parenting practiced, Dr.James Dobson. With so much confusion about the role of men in our society, it’s no marvel so many parents and teachers are at a loss about how to bring up boys. Our culture has vilified masculinity and, as a result, boys are suffering. Parents, teachers, and others involved in shaping the character of boys have lots of questions. In Bringing Up Boys, Dr. Dobson tackles these questions and offers advice and encouragement based on a firm foundation of biblical principles.

Parenting means to prepare a child for life, to nurture, to like, to guide, to teach.
Discipline is loving guidance, not corporal punishment, where the child in a demeaning and destructive way wrongly learns that violence is a form of acceptable communication and guidance, by parents. There are no benefits to hit a child – It is destructive for a child’s self worth, self esteem, and demeaning and disrespectful. Children have feelings and emotions as adults. It is extremely unfair and disgraceful of parents to misuse their power on weaker people – our children – who are defenseless and who don’t have their own voice. Your child will be confused and reflect “Why is my mother and father whom I like and trust inflicting pain on me?” Arresting a child, will separate the bond between parents and a child, and will only make the child fearful of their parents. In addition, arresting a child won’t teach and guide a child towards better behavior in a constructive and communicative way. By slapping a name, what do you learn? Nothing – only that it is okay to be antisocial and misbehave and to be violent. Parents who hit their children are THE ONE’S misbehaving. They are no excellent role models. These parents need parenting classes and therapy as they are victims of abuse themselves. These parents are out of control and out of knowledge.
Reflect of the Golden rule: Treat additional people, yes children are people too, as you with to be treated yourself, with respect, like and kindness. Children are children: They need a safe place to explore their boundaries and to test their parents’ like, where parents act as wise, uncomplaining, and loving parents- as parents. Why spank a child whose brains are not yet fully developed? Children don’t know right from incorrect – It is our job to guide and teach them, not punish them. Christians should know better that “spare the rod, spoil the child” from Proverbs in Ancient Tribute is not current any longer. Remember- With Jesus comes a better way, a New Law: The New Tribute. Jesus does not spank the children. Jesus says “Let the children come to me”. Jesus likes the small children. My fundamental questions are: Why do these parents give birth to children in the world if they can’t raise children and like children? Where is the human intelligence here? These dysfunctional parents have grave limitations when it comes to parenting children, as they have not healed from their wounded past and subconsciousness. Their only driving force is to let the child take away their own pain from abuse, by forcing them to pay the fee for their own pain, and force the child know how it feels like to be abused.

Homosexuality is a disorder? Please. James Dobson is an imbecilic fossil from a remarkably ignorant age. I dread for any child whose parents read this dreck and really reflect it provides any worthwhile advice.
Alas, I regret that I’m forced to give this pathetic excuse for a book one star.

BE warned. It is a weel known fact among Evangelical circles that items like this get reviewed by follower lacking them really buying or reading the book. I have received many requests in the mail asking me to do so for various books, tapes, cds, etc. On to the review from a name who wasted $$$ and bought it.
Save your money and buy a bunch of planks to hit your children and duct tape to make sure they don’t hear or see what you don’t want them to. Don’t parent out of like. Parent with dread. Before buying this book do some research on the leader. What his views are on every imaginable topic. What he is a “dr.” of. Then make your choice.
Being a christian myself, I can’t fathom anyone using this book as a guideline to raising children and STILL expecting to be right with their God.
It only gets 1 star because I could’nt give it zero.

Perfect waste of time. What can i tell about the leader who thinks that homosexuality is a desease?? He also believes that it can be cured!!!! If the leader had been gay he would’ve known better. What about tha people who have gay sons??? I tink that this book is completely outdated and reminds me in many places the books of the beginning of the century. A lot of religious stuff and no information. The next thing such authors want to advise you to do is to place some kind of contrivance to prevent the teenaged boys from masturbation like in 19-th century books. Well, in 2 words – back to 19 th century.
