Don't worry, Mom. There's a good reason why your son perplexes you. He's the OPPOSITE sex! Boys really do think, communicate, and process the world differently than girls. But no matter your son's age, he needs you, and he needs you in not-so-apparent ways.

My Review: As a mother of a small son, I am always interested in reading books on the topic, so when given the opportunity to review this book, I jumped on it. The title made me wonder what treasures the author had in store. After all, what mom doesn't want to know what her son needs. What I found inside were principles that could be applied to raising sons, no matter the age of the child. What I came away with was that I need to be raising my son with the end goal in sight. And what is that end goal? To raise a man. The author encourages mothers to be purposeful in the way that we handle our sons. It is easy for me to get caught up in the stresses of the day and lose track of the man my son will become. After reading What a Son Needs From His Mom, I am more determined than ever to be conscience of way I'm training my boy to become a man of God.
My Rating:
My Recommendation: I recommend this book to Christian moms who have sons.
