Summary

He's disappearing. Behind the closed door, lost in screens, making choices that keep you up at night. He's navigating a world designed to confuse him – algorithms designed to addict him – a world parents don't understand and can't break into. The headlines scream crisis. They warn us that boys are in deep trouble... and it's getting worse.

Dr Justin Coulson has a different story to tell. In Boys, Coulson reveals what decades of research suggests: when boys get what they actually need, they thrive. Not through force or fixing, but through connection, meaningful challenge, and someone who refuses to give up on them.

This audiobook cuts through the noise with practical, research-backed strategies for the battles you're fighting right now.

But beneath the tactics lies something more powerful: a vision of masculinity worth fighting for. Boys who help others feel safer and stronger. Who create surplus value. Who become not just good men, but the best version of themselves. Your son already has everything he needs to get there.

Thank you for the wisdom and tips.

I didn’t connect as much with this book as I do with say Maggie Dent, Steve Biddulph or Daniel Principe; I think because it felt more like I was being talked at rather than guided. Perhaps a book better suited to fathers as there is a big emphasis on that which is not something I can connect with. Would have loved to hear more alternatives.

This book leaves readers with strategies that are so neglected in this device driven world and help parents stop boys drowning in front of screens and becoming disengaged with their parents. The disconnect between boys and parents is huge by the time they are in high school and it’s up to parents to take action. This book has answers and valid, doable recommendations.

It was refreshing to listen to a book about boys that is positive and practical, without shying away from the negative forces attempting to either neutralise or distort their masculinity. There is genuine love and hope for boys and girls in the answers found here.
