Dr. Cara Natterson’s book, Decoding Boys: New Science Behind the Subtle Art of Raising Sons, came out in February 2020 & made a big splash. Kirkus Reviews calls it, "A common-sensical, gently humorous exploration of male puberty’s many trials" and a New York Times article declared, "...for rational, evidence-based advice on how to talk to your son about every internal and external force he’ll experience from fourth grade through college, Cara Natterson’s zippy, bighearted 'Decoding Boys' is the guide you need.'" Our ON BOYS listeners clearly agree: Decoding Boys with Dr. Cara Natterson is our most-downloaded episode of 2020. Some gems: Not talking to your son about his evolving physical, emotional and social self is the biggest parent trap of them all. and Boys will take good information and run with it. If we just tell them no and don’t give them the why, they don’t listen. This conversation was originally recorded in April 2020. Note the bookmarks....
