Reviews
“In a time when our culture seems intent on emasculating our boys, it is a real pleasure to find Christians who are pushing back, responding with biblical answers. Raising Real Men combines a number of important characteristics in giving advice to parents of young boys — it is earthy, realistic, humorous and scriptural. Hal and Melanie Young write from a homeschooling setting, but much of what they have to say is also pertinent to Christian parents of boys in private Christian schools. I hope this book gets a wide reading in both realms.”

“Hal and Melanie have put together a wonderful, warmhearted, and practical little book on raising sons into men of God – a must-read for any parent blessed with boys.”

“As the grandfather of six boys ranging in age from two to fifteen, I am acutely aware of the need that this book fills, and quite admirably. This is just what the doctor ordered for parents who want to raise capable Christian men of character.”

“I am learning to dance! Not ballet, jazz or tap, but the ‘dance’ of a mother who is raising young roosters. Being a mom of boys is a challenge and a joy — but it can also be bewildering as they reach up into adulthood and begin to cut the apron strings. I’m becoming an expert at this special mom-boy dance — stepping in sync both backward, forward, and sideways to get out of the way of those big feet which unintentionally seem to land on my own.
Hal and Melanie Young have their finger on the pulse of what it takes to grow confident, strong, godly young men who will be ready to take on the world at a young age. Mothers of boys who read Raising Real Men will be challenged and affirmed in this dance, learning to co-mentor our sons as they move toward their callings and divine destinies, being launched, one by one, like flaming arrows into eternity.”
