Dear Society: Boys Can Cry, Too

If you have someone in your family or a friend who has been a victim, you must read this book, but be prepared to cry as you begin to understand the extent of the epidemic, and the number of men and women who have been victims. One person found this helpful. This book is a perfect example of how the human spirit can provide strength in the toughest of situations. John's ability to work through his emotional past is a great lesson for others who have endured such terrible abuse. Maybe we see a brave new world, a world where boys stand with an emotional vocabulary and aren't afraid to use it, where boys honor and value their emotional lives as rich windows to their souls, where boys unclench those precious, magnificent hearts.

And that, society, is worth letting my boy weep over losing a toy, because it meant a whole lot to him. It's worth letting him cry when it's time to leave a house, because he genuinely, wholeheartedly enjoyed this visit with people he loves. It's worth watching those tears stain cheeks when he caused a little trouble at school, because he really, really regrets it.
