Connecting with My Son

You love your son.

You know him inside and out. Or you used to.

He’s growing up and changing. He may be pulling away or you are thinking he will any day now. You wonder what to do. Is there a way to stay close during the teen years? You hope so. You know you have a lot you an offer him as he transforms from boy to young man.

How to stay connected?

The key is in getting to know what your son is going through. That’s the first step. You know the teen years can be challenging for boys and for parents. You see it all around you.

How is your son managing so far? Has he gotten quiet? Pulled away? It seems like just yesterday he was carefree, confident, and even talkative (for a boy!). He may be moody. His circle of friends may be changing. He’s moving into the teen years and you know he’s got a lot coming at him.

Want your Son to Thrive?

Here are some of his realities:

  • Testosterone increases 20x in the teen years (that’s huge)
  • His body is becoming programmed to look for and want sex (he probably doesn’t understand those changes and urges, how could he?)
  • He is prompted by the culture to look at pornography – but the images he sees are far more graphic than you can imagine and they include violence. He doesn’t know what to think. Is that how sex is supposed to work? He wonders. (FACT: 80% of kids ages 8-16 have viewed internet porn.)
  • He learns from his male counterparts that the only feeling he can show is anger; he feels so much more than that. He has no idea how to channel his strong feelings. If he doesn’t figure this out he will erupt.
  • If he’s not already there, in the upcoming years he will find himself drawn to girls. He may have uncontrollable fantasies. And then there are the uncontrollable erections. Is this normal? He wonders.

In the midst of all of this it’s your job, as his parent, to guide him. You’re not sure what is going through his mind. You wonder what to say to him. You may be unsure of how to talk to him about his changing body and the buildup of energy that he experiences every day. It’s a lot to consider.

What if you had a blueprint to show you how to stay connected to your son? What if you could give your son the guidance and knowledge he needs to confidently move through the teen years?

What if you could prepare your son with content and skills that would help him manage his:

  1. Changing relationships (with you, with his peers, and with girls)
  2. Changing body – with all of its uncontrollable aspects
  3. Anger and other strong emotions
  4. Sexuality   - Yes, he’s a sexual being. He needs help learning how to integrate that into his self-concept and he needs to learn how to control his urges

Would you feel better if you knew your son was prepared to handle the massive changes the preteen and teen years bring?  

You can provide the support and learning your son needs with this kit, Connecting with My Son.
