The 20th anniversary edition of the iconic book that takes parents into the mysterious world of boys.

THE TWENTIETH ANNIVERSARY EDITION OF A PARENTING CLASSIC

How do you raise boys to men in a world where trouble beckons at every turn? How do you make sure they learn the 'right' lessons, stay out of danger, find a path to follow? How do you ensure they'll be OK?

After years working in the prison service, Celia Lashlie knew what could happen when boys made the wrong choices. She also knew what it's like to be a parent - she raised a son on her own and feared for his survival. As a crucial part of the Good Man Project, she talked to 180 classes of boys. From her research she gathered timeless insights into what boys need - and what parents can do to help them.

With clarity and insight, He'll Be OK offers parents - especially mothers - practical and reassuring advice on raising their boys to become good, loving, articulate men.
