The Boy Crisis

[Chuck Naill]

I’ve consider getting involved. I’d like to address “toxic masculinity” and “Toxic Feminism”. Neither originated out of thin air. Actions, institutions, prejudices, and beliefs are behind both.

I see the benefit of girls and boys playing sports together at least before puberty.

There would be a positive in boys learning to be a caregiver like taking care of babies and toddlers. It produces an others orientation.

That a father is in the home is no guarantee. A benevolent/nurturing male as a coach or mentor goes a long way.

What the OP is about primarily is a look back into what causes young males to become a mass killer. This is different from a forward thinking consideration into how to parent. A book that helped me was How to Really Love Your Child by Ross Campbell. He sets forward three things, active listening, eye contact, and unconditional love.
