How Childhood Shapes the Men We Become

Every man has a childhood. Most of us think we've left it behind. But author, Brendan James Murray argues we haven't. The fears, beliefs, patterns and wounds we carry as men often begin long before we're conscious of how they shape the way we think, feel and act.

After more than a decade as a high school teacher, Brendan set out in search of answers to some of the big questions that emerged from the classroom. His latest book, Childhood, explores why some boys slip through the cracks, become disconnected and in some cases, lose hope altogether — and what can be done to help more boys grow into healthy, connected men.
