Raising Boys Who Respect Girls: Upending Locker Room Mentality. Blind Spots. and Unintended Sexism

Dave Willis author speaker and father of four boys talks biblically and practically about how to raise a generation of boys who are champions encouragers and respecters of women.In the #metoo and #churchtoo era with so many men and boys continuing to make the same mistakes we have to ask: Where are we going wrong? And perhaps more importantly how do we raise up men who will break this cycle?As the father of four boys relationship coach and author Dave Willis has studied this issue deeply concluding that if we are to raise boys to respect girls­--and not end up with men who say they respect women but whose actions reveal otherwise--we must go back to the heart of things. Or more specifically we must go back to our own hearts.In Raising Boys Who Respect Girls Willis helps readers inventory the blind spots that lead to accidental forms of disrespect showing how to root out issues in our own hearts before we inadvertently pass along these same issues to our boys. He also teaches readers how to cultivate a healthy respect for God and for themselves as created in his image as well as a similar respect for others. Full of scripture research age-specific tools and conversation models this book offers a practical strategy for mindful parents to first embody the right principles themselves and then teach them to their sons.
