About this product

Product Information

Children have plenty of buddies. In an age when kids all around us are growing up without strong, positive guidance from their parents (who are busy, distracted, gone, or choose to be buddies instead of parents), children need someone they can look to with respect to help them build their lives. When he was thirteen years old, Truett Cathy, founder of Chick-fil-A, had such a man step into his life: a Sunday school teacher who modeled love, respect, hard work, and discipline. Cathy decided to follow that model, and today he has some 130 foster grandchildren, many of whom have broken their family's generational cycle of neglect through the encouragement of Cathy and other adults who reached out to them. In It's Better to Build Boys Than Mend Men, Truett Cathy lays out a simple model for adults desiring to reach out to youth and challenges readers to allow God to work through them to change the life of a child. His book is filled with stories illustrating the principles of discipline, trust, reputation, generosity, common sense, peer pressure, and family stability. Readers who follow their hearts into children's lives will find that their own lives are enriched as well.

  • Great Book for parents & those who work with kids

    I have worked with kids for 13+ years and found this book very applicable to what I do. Some chapters push morality pretty hard (which isn't bad) but the message may need to be tempered or at least explained differant for certain populations. Many great thoughts by a great man! Must read!

  • Mentoring boys

    If you mentor boys, then this book is a must read. The con is if you have read any of Truett Cathy's other books you will find similarities in this book.

  • good book

    awesome
