Ferocious Love: Dragon Taming for Mothers of Teenage Boys

Raising a teenage boy can be stressful and frustrating for today’s mother.  What worked when the boy was younger just doesn’t cut it anymore.  Mom’s best efforts often result only in rude, disobedient, sullen and obnoxious behavior.

Come to the Troy Library for this four-part series by psychologist, social worker and teenage boy expert Ted Braude, who will introduce mothers to the understanding and skills needed to bring a halt to the bad behavior and shepherd the boy into healthy young manhood. 

Join Ted on Mondays, from 6:30-8:30 pm, for the following workshops:
