Publisher's Summary
One of Australia's favourite boy experts on how to help teen boys to develop into good men.
For boys, adolescence can be a confusing minefield and parents are often bewildered as to how to best guide their precious sons.
Many parents wake one day to find that their beautiful little boys have grown into silent, withdrawn, sometimes angry and often unmotivated tweens and teens.
Well-known Australian author, parenting and resilience educator, and one of Australia's favourite boy experts Maggie Dent, offers parents and guardians a compassionate and practical guidebook, packed with advice and ground-breaking techniques on how to stay calm and:
- Communicate effectively to defuse conflict
- 'Unstick' an unmotivated son
- Teach them to cope with loss and failure, and how to recover
- Help them foster healthy friendships and intimate relationships
- Navigate technology and the digital world.
From Boys to Men empowers parents with insights, tips and a common-sense approach to help all boys - and their families - thrive as they progress through adolescence, offering hope for a future of adventure, stability, engagement and connection.
Featuring a Foreword by Michael Gurian

Mothers of boys must read this book
If you are as lost in the wilderness with your son(s) as I am, then Maggie Dent is your guru. Her tips and guidance are wonderful. I have found her advice to be practical and loving.
There are a couple of editing mistakes in the book perhaps the sound guy missed but other than that, Maggie does a great job.

all Dads need to listen to this
My wife suggested reading this book a while ago, but I found the audiobook most enlightening, as you get much more from Maggie reading it to you. An excellent reference book for all parents, especially Dads. It was particularly helpful in helping me understand my time growing up and how I react and respond to situations. Thanks Maggie!
