Janet Allison's work asks and helps us answer the question, how do we raise boys to become good men? She is the founder of Boys Alive, an organization that provides coaching and education to parents of boys of all ages. She's also the host of the ON BOYS podcast, which is now four years running with hundreds of thousands of downloads, featuring experts in the worlds of child psychology, development, and parenting. Even if you are not a parent or don't ever plan to become one, this conversation will deeply impact you. It points to tragic cultural feedback loops that keep making it harder for children of all genders to become healthy, thriving adults.As a result, we keep reproducing the very social-cultural problems we want to avoid - men abusing power, unable to communicate effectively, unable to express their emotions, confusing strength with force, confusing confidence with arrogance. All of these problems have roots in our culture's approach to raising boys.Janet has done amazing work as an educator and coach to help people of all backgrounds unpack this. In the process, she helps us think deeply and clearly about who we want our children to become. How do we help our children unlock their full potential without forcing them into rigid gender identities that limit that potential?

Life as a parent of a boy can be challenging and confusing.  They have so much energy when they’re young only for them to grind to an almost standstill, in their tween and teen years where we’re seeing them get hooked on screens and gaming. We used to call boys who developed a bit slower, “late bloomers” and now we call them, “lost causes.”  The fact is that our boys ARE slower to develop, the do have DIFFERENT brains and it’s important we understand these differences so we give them the best chance to thrive! My guest, Janet Allison, is a boy expert and explains the keys to unlocking our boys (and the men in our lives)!  When you better understand your boy, his challenges, and his opportunities, you’ll experience new and better possibilities for you and your family!

While every teen is an individual, generally our boys and girls are different. Raising boys is exciting and challenging, however, our culture is often geared more toward girls. From problems highlighted in the media to classroom expectations, our boys’ world has a feminine lean. Understanding what is happening and how our boys function is essential to their wellbeing. Janet Alison from Boys Alive pulls back the curtain and shows us what is really happening as she chats with podcast host Sandy Fowler on Mighty Parenting. They discuss what this is doing to our boys as well as what parents need to be aware of and how we can support our boys and raise strong, compassionate young men.

On todays show we have a slight change of format as I chat with Janet Allison about teaching and raising boys. About Janet Allison (https://boysalive.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Janethead.jpg) Educator After receiving her degree in Elementary Education from the University of Maine at Farmington (cum laude), Janet Allison began her teaching career in a Waldorf School with a class of 10 boys and 2 girls. She quickly realized she had NOT been prepared for the differences in the way boys learn and the way girls learn. Through trial and error, extensive reading and research, and sheer determination, Janet was at last able to understand those parts of her boys that were hard-wired (and therefore unchangeable) and the things that she could change – by making lessons more active and interactive and providing plenty of outside time and movement in the classroom. With her many years of classroom experience, she is able to ‘talk the talk’ with teachers in both public and private schools – including those following Waldorf and Montessori principles. Coach Concurrently, she did extensive training in communication skills and life coaching (Neuro-Linguistic Programming – NLP) and began to hear from parents and other teachers about how much they were struggling with “boy energy.” From there she created The Language of Parentingcurriculum which soon after evolved into the Boys Alive! program. Because parents asked, she also began  Family Coaching (https://boysalive.com/coaching/)  – providing one-on-one help to families struggling with their boys. Author and Host Wishing to reach more people with this vital message, she wrote  Boys Alive! Bring Out Their Best (https://boysalive.com/product/boys-alive-bring-out-their-best-book/)  and has collaborated with many international experts to create virtual educational summits, interviewing experts and sharing wisdom with thousands of parents and teachers. She hosted BOY TALK for several years, interviewing parenting experts and expert parents on a monthly theme. Podcast – ON BOYS: Real Talk about Parenting, Teaching, and Reaching Tomorrow’s Men Along with Jennifer LW Fink of Building Boys, Janet co-hosts  a weekly podcast. (http://on-boys-podcast.com/)  With Janet’s educational expertise and 20+ years of working with parents and advocating for boys combined with Jen’s 20+ years of raising four boys and writing for national magazines on boy-friendly topics – they never lack for things to talk about!  In addition, they’ve interviewed top-selling authors and parenting experts including: Rosalind Wiseman, Dr. Warren Farrell, Katherine Reynolds Lewis, Michael Reichert, and Maggie Dent. Janet has two grown daughters and lives in Portland, Oregon. She is available for speaking engagements, training sessions, podcast interviews and media outreach.

High quality learning in the early years of life is vitally important to the creation of an educated society. Young children are not simply preparing for the future, they are living a never to be repeated time of life and the best way to learn is to live.

In Episode 23 of Outside The Bubble, I learn from Janet Allison about the male brain and how boys are impacted in school, which historically has been a female profession. It had never occurred to me those female expectations - the foundation of education - are not conducive to the boy brain. In this episode you’ll learn: How the male and female brain are different How classroom expectations impact the mental health of boys from a young age The expectations many female teachers (and male teachers) have that are damaging to boys How to engage boys in the classroom Developmental difference between girls and boys The scientific reason boys like violence and video games The importance of talking to boys about pornography One topic we didn’t cover is boys and anger so Janet has a created an audio guide about the topic for Outside The Bubble listeners which can be found at http://boysalive.com/anger.otb Janet is the Author of Boys Alive!

If not -- WELCOME! Your child is 100% normal, and you're going to love this conversation with Jen, Janet and Katherine Reynolds Lewis, author of The Good News About Bad Behavior. In her book, Lewis writes: If you look around and see misbehaving, undisciplined children everywhere, it's not just imagination. Children today are fundamentally different from past generations. They truly have less self-control. Simply put, we face a crisis of self-regulation. Lewis's observations of her own children, and comments from other parents, led her on a six-year exploration of behavior, parenting and neurobiology -- and points the way toward parenting techniques we can begin adapting right now to improve our children's behavior. In this episode, Jen, Janet & Katherine discuss: The dramatic increase in mental health problems in today's youth What self-regulation is, why it's important, and how to develop it in our kids How to shift your mindset from "How do I control my children?" to "How do I teach them to control themselves?" Progress, not perfection How to shift from a reactive model of parenting to thoughtful, deliberate parenting The "mumble and walk away technique" (Trust us: this can change your parenting for the better!) 3 common characteristics of research-backed models of discipline: connection, communication & capability How to use physical touch to help your child self-regulate Why kids need to do hard stuff -- & the link between failure & self-esteem The relationship between risk & capability ("Early risky experiences seem to inoculate kids from later phobias & anxiety," Lewis says. She also says, "Kids should do something a little bit risky every day.") Why you should watch out for the word "should" How to find support as you practice a new model of parenting Links we mentioned (or should have) in Episode 123: katherinereynoldslewis.com -- Katherine's author website.

After receiving her degree in Elementary Education from the University of Maine at Farmington, Janet Allison began her teaching career in a Waldorf School with a class of 10 boys and 2 girls. She quickly realized she had NOT been prepared for the differences in the way boys learn and the way girls learn. Through trial and error, extensive reading and research, and sheer determination, Janet was at last able to understand those parts of her boys that were hard-wired (and therefore unchangeable) and the things that she could change – by making lessons more active and interactive and providing plenty of outside time and movement in the classroom. With her many years of classroom experience, she is able to ‘talk the talk’ with teachers in both public and private schools – including those following Waldorf and Montessori principles.   Janet Allison  www.boysalive.com On Boys Podcast

Like many parents of boys, I'm sure, I've noticed that — while globally there's a long way to go to level the playing field for girls — here at home boys are more likely to be medicated for attention deficit disorder and more likely to drop out of school, while the girls are the more likely to be the ones standing at the front of the assembly collecting most of the academic awards. And young women are now out-graduating men from university at considerable rates and have been for some time. It seems that, as a whole, boys may be needing some clearer direction and better messages about what it means to be a boy. I'm joined today by Janet Allison of Boys Alive. Janet is an educator and parent coach with a specialty in helping parents and teachers to nurture boys. She's also the author of Boys Alive: Bring Out Their Best. Show Notes Love our work?

Ohh boy, it is so difficult to raise boys!!! I can definitely tell you that the complaints I hear from parents of boys are totally different than complaints of parents of girls. I myself have three girls, so I am definitely not an expert on raising boys. Today on the show I have Janet Allison, a parent coach who helps parents understand their boys better and bring out their best. Here are the things we discuss: How do boys/men communicate, play and listen? How boys' brains are different than girls' brains? Some tips on feeding boys? How to praise boys? How does testosterone work in males' brains and how can we, moms/women, make the best use of this knowledge and understanding with regards to our boys and or our male partners? How do you know your boy is thriving? How to handle technology with boys?
