"A Fine Young Man" is a book that changed how I looked at my son's development. It is a nice playbook for how to handle and support a young boy and help him grow into a confident man. I've used Mr. Gurian's advice with my son and I think it has helped him develop into a fine young boy. My son is still very young but I believe with these techniques I will continue to understand the very difficult stages that my son is going through. Because I do not have first hand experience growing up male I have appreciated a book that helped me see the experience in a different light.

This book should be given to parents, especially mothers, of every boy born! It was so helpful to me, I've read it off and on for 10 years. Now that my son is 18, it's time to pass it on.
