Six hours a day, 180 days a year, for 13 formative years, children in public school are exposed to a secular world view that denies the existence or the relevance of God.  What is the impact of that exposure on impressionable minds?  Dr. Dobson explores that idea in his conversation with E. Ray Moore on today’s edition of Family Talk with Dr. James Dobson.

Bringing Up Boys
With so much confusion about the role of men in society, it’s no wonder we have questions about how to bring up boys in the right way. Why are so many young males in crisis? What qualities should we be instilling in our sons? The culture has vilified masculinity, and as a result, an entire generation of boys is growing up without a clear idea of what it means to be a man. To help parents confront this challenge, the Dr. James Dobson Family Institute has developed a new 10-day email series based on Dr. Dobson’s best-selling book, Bringing Up Boys. It’s designed to equip you to wisely lead your sons to become godly men.
