Boyhood Daze: An Incomplete Guide to Raising Boys

by Dave Meurer

"Dave Barry is no longer the funniest man in America." Jim Watkins, Author, Speaker, Newspaper Columnist [book title] "Dave Meurer is purely and simply a comic genius. He finds humor in everything he does and everywhere he goes and brings us along for the ride. As a new father, I found it to be one of the most genuinely funny books I've ever read." Phil Midling Editor and Publisher of The Clarion "Very funny stuff! This is a great 'guy' book even if you're not a guy. The ballistic diaper chapter alone is well worth the price. One word of Do not attempt to read while drinking milk (unless you enjoy snorting milk out your nose)." Laura Jensen Walker Author of Dated Jekyll, Married Hyde and Love Handles for the Romantically Impaired "-hilarious. I laughed out loud throughout the book. But Dave Meurer is not just funny. He's insightful and clever in the way he takes simple, real experiences and translates them into meaningful reflections on parenthood. Parenting is serious business. And perhaps because it is so serious, we need to take it a little less seriously and enjoy the ride." Timothy R. Holler, Assistant Professor of Psychology, Crichton College "Raising boys and being a Christian go together like gasoline and matches. What a blast! Fortunately, Dave Meurer can get you out alive, laughing, and even a little smarter." David Kopp Father of four sons, Senior Editor of Christian Parenting Today , and coauthor of Praying the Bible for Your Children Every Harried Parent Needs an Industrial-Sized Dose of Laughter, and Dave Meurer Provides It.

This was a really enjoyable read for me. Although I'm not a parent of boys, I remember fondly the experiences I had growing up and can relate to the author's experiences in raising boys. There is no false pretenses when it comes to his suggestions or experiences. He shares the successes and the failures and let's the reader decide which is the best way to approach their own boys. You'll learn to laugh and smile as you read all the adventures that Mark and Brad (the authors sons) share with us. A great read!
