Self Esteem Books For Boys In Teenage Years

By Rosella Campbell


When a boy is in his teen years, it is here that he will have the most problems when it comes to his self esteem because it is in this part of his life that he will be trying to find his identity. Because of this, he will be trying to fit in a lot with a lot of other people in order to try to build up that esteem of his. In order to make sure that he does not go down the wrong path, it is always best for parents to buy some self esteem books for boys in these years.

Now this list would start with a really good one that was written by inspirational writer Tina Rae and also co written by Lisa Pedersen. The book is entitled Developing Emotional Literacy with Teenage Boys and is one of the most well known works in this category. It would really zoom in on the problems that a boy in his teen years would experience.

Basically, this book is about trying to shape up the emotional state of boys who are at this age. During this time, they are trying to fit in so that they can feel like they are actually worth something because they feel that their worth is based on how other people perceive them. The book offers techniques on how to build up the confidence of teen boys so that they can be able to find their own path.

Another great book is entitled Battlefield of the Mind. This book was actually written by a Christian author named Joyce Meyer who has written a lot of other inspirational books as well. Although this is targeted to Christians, it is actually a great book for non Christians as well because of the insights that are given.

Basically, this book would concentrate on the negative things that would fill the mind of people who are going through a stage of having low esteem. The author would not only have some inspiring words for the readers but also some techniques for people to try. The author would want to try to get people gain control over negative thoughts.

One of the best of them all for males of this age would be one written by William Pollack. This piece of work is entitled Real Boy, Rescuing our Sons from Myths of Boyhood. Not only does the book contain insights from the author but also studies from real psychologists.

Basically, this book recounts how men are expected to react every time there is a problem. While girls may cry or complain whenever something happens to them, society dictates that men cannot. They are expected to keep it inside and solve it because that is what real men do.

This book states that this kind of mentality would actually crush the confidence of young men and actually turn them into men who do not know how to express. The author encourages parents to talk to their sons and know what exactly is going on in their heads. From there, parents can try to guide their sons to doing the right thing.
