Unfortunately, I think one of the biggest problems with raising little boys is our education system. When a preschool teacher tells you it's time to get little 3 year old Johnny on Ritalin because in her "expert" opinion he has a real problem, you know the system is broke.
The last 25 to 30 years we as a society have been drugging our young (almost exclusively) males to make them quiet and more manageable in the classroom. It wasn't like that before. It's no wonder these little boys grow up to be big boys with no ambition. They grew up sedated.
