Part 4: Boys Don’t
Need… Probing and Dumping
Sometimes concerned parents can have the
tendency to over-analyze their sons, probing them for information about
how they are doing and feeling. And when a boy
misbehaves, some parents pile on the recriminations, dumping their own
emotions onto their kids. Find out why boys need a
certain amount of space, and why clear, brief, and simple
communication works best.
Part 5: Boys Need… Delicate Love and
a Sense of Humor
Sometimes the simplest gestures—a smile and
a look of love, little details of consideration, and a
good sense of humor—are what boys remember most when they
have grown up. Find out how much of an impact
these small actions can have.
Part 6: Boys Need… a Spirit
of Hard Work
Learning to work is a key part
of growing into manhood. Parents can do a big favor
for their boys by teaching them the value of perfection
and discipline in their work. Find out why in this
2-minute video with Fr Michael.
Part 7: Boys Need…
Help to Become Men of God

by nature, but they can learn. Find out what a
difference it can make when a boy discovers Christ as
his best friend. Fr Michael shares his own experience of
learning to love God through ECYD and his parents’ example
in this 2-minute video.
