Males who are in their teenage years are known to really experience bouts of insecurity because they are in the process of trying to find out who they really are. In the process, many develop some insecurities and esteem problems because they are expected to be real men at this age even if they do not know how. Of course it is because of this problem that so many self esteem books for boys in their teenage years were actually written.
One of the best books that could be bought would be one titled Developing Emotional Literacy with Teenage Boys. This wonderful book is written by author Tina Rae and co written by Lisa Pedersen. The target of this book is for boys who are in their tween and their teen years.
Now in a nutshell, the author aims to try to make the emotional state of each young boy more stable. As stated above, males at this age are trying to become men so that they will be respected by their peers, by their relatives, and generally everyone around them. This book actually does give some great insights on how males can build up their confidence by being their own person and not letting society dictate who they should be.
Next on the list would be a book that is entitled Battlefield of the Mind. Now this book was actually written for a Christian audience because it was written by Joyce Meyer, a Christian author. However, if one would read the book, he will realize that aside from the mentioning of faith and the like, it is actually a great book for non Christians as well.
Basically, this book would concentrate on the negative things that would fill the mind of people who are going through a stage of having low esteem. The author would not only have some inspiring words for the readers but also some techniques for people to try. The author would want to try to get people gain control over negative thoughts.
Now the last book on the list is probably the most helpful for the boys who are in this time of their lives. The book is Real Boy, Rescuing our Sons from the Myths of Boyhood. The author of this wonderful book is William Pollack. What makes this book different from the others is that it includes a lot of psychological studies as well as insights.
Now one of the main things that the book would concentrate on would be how society looks at men. Men are actually expected to take the bout of any problem like how a real man should. Real men are not allowed to complain, cry, and show any form of negative emotion.
One of the expectations of society would be that men would suck in their problems and just solve them. The author debunks this kind of perception and encourages parents to let their sons express how they fell and cry if they have to. That way, they will be lead to the right direction because of the right guidance.
