Philip and I talked about the importance of initiating boys to successfully and powerfully transition from boyhood into adulthood. Some culture, the Jewish for example has such rituals as part of their cultural heritage. Usually, there is an element of religion to it, but the kind of initiations that Philip talks about are simply boy meets world and gets prepared for incoming challenges. Philip and I both believe that by 'prepping' young man to become responsible men with 'grit' we will make the world and our planet a huge favor! So, what do we do? What can we do today to prepare our young boys for manhood? Are we doing enough as parents? Could we do more?
