David Thomas is someone I go to as a resource when it comes to parentingespecially parenting a boy. His wisdom, insight, and kindness are unparalleled. Raising Emotionally Strong Boys is a book I will keep as an ongoing reference. Thank you for writing this book, David!

Rachel Cruze , #1 New York Times bestselling author, host of The Rachel Cruze Show

For the past decade, David Thomas has been my go-to boy expert. His newest book, Raising Emotionally Strong Boys , unlocked a new level of understanding my four sons. Based on years of counseling boys, David provides insight and practical activities to gently guide you in knowing how to help your son name, regulate, and respond appropriately to his emotions.

Heather MacFadyen , author of Dont Mom Alone , host of the Dont Mom Alone Podcast

This book is the most impactful, practical, and applicable playbook for raising young men that we have read to date. Our boys will face opponents called pressures, stresses, disappointments, expectations, shame, guilt, anger, sadness, fury, and the fear of not measuring up. Yet with this training manual, we have a plan to champion them as they grow in character with both strength and pliability (tenderness). David, we cannot thank you enough, friend, for coming alongside parents with the truth that these young men can out-score those opponents when they realize the resources surrounding and within them are always greater than what is against them.

Weve been through deep pain and deeper resilience in our story, but one of our main concerns is how our boys will internalize it all in their own stories. Were so grateful for guides like Davidand this bookwho help equip us as we humbly parent our kids into the reality that life can be hard but it can also be good, and that what happens to them matters far less than how they respond to it.

Katherine and Jay Wolf , co-authors of Hope Heals and Suffer Strong

Davids book Wild Things is one I highly recommend (no, urge) every parent to read. Raising Emotionally Strong Boys is no different. Each page leads me into a deeper understanding of my five sons, enables me to meet them where they are, and shows me how to empower them on their path to godly manhood. An absolutely essential read!

Foreword

B oys are bewildering creatures. Theyre adorable, hilarious, wild, and completely puzzling. Its why I have watched literally thousands of parentsmoms, in particularsit transfixed, listening to and learning from my friend David Thomas. Yes, at first theyre transfixed. And then I can see deep, hope-filled relief flood over them. My son is normal.

It is truly life-changing for every mom and every grown-up who loves a boy to hear Davidwho has been counseling boys and their families for almost three decadessay that their little (or big) guy is active and aggressive and curious because hes supposed to be. That, indeed, he does act before thinking. That its all part of how God designed his brain to develop. That there are ways we can interact with him that speak specifically to that design. And that might even help him listen, too.
