Hello and welcome!
We're Kasey Edwards and Dr Christopher Scanlon, a wife-and-husband research and writing team who have been read by over 10 million people worldwide.
We wrote Bringing Up Boys Who Like Themselves because, well, people kept asking for it.
As soon as our book Raising Girls Who Like Themselves was published, we got the same question over and over:
What about boys?
All these people are right to ask this question because absolutely everything that you hope and dream for your boy starts with raising him to like himself.
"Everyone with a boy seriously needs to read this book, and then read it again. It's just so helpful, practical, and well-researched.
You'll need your own copy as you will refer back to it again and again."
