qualities of boys and girls. His book gives parents practical tools
to help them appreciate and develop the femininity of their

gender? His observations are not only insightful, but also
practical. In a world steeped in gender confusion, this resource is
invaluable.
-Dr. Juli Slattery, author and psychologist, Focus on the Family
We live in a time of almost breathtaking confusion over things that
should be basic, like the difference between boys and girls.
Parents need good guidance in the midst of such confusion, and
Glenn Stanton offers this kind of advice in Secure Daughters,
Confident Sons. The secular world tells us that masculinity and
femininity are merely social constructs that we must learn to leave
behind, but Stanton believes that a proper understanding of manhood
and womanhood is essential to Christian faithfulness and human
happiness. I am thankful for his conviction and his courage.
-Dr. R. Albert Mohler Jr., president of the Southern Baptist
Theology Seminary
