This unnecessary disconnection from family and then from self causes many boys to feel alone, helpless, and fearful. And yet society's prevailing myths about boys do not leave room for such emotions, and so the boy feels he is not measuring up."</div> <div> <IMG SRC="0b1a9100.gif" border=0 width="425" height="16" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> "It's really hard being a guy, because you're really expected not to talk about your feelings. You've got to deal with everything yourself. With girls, everybody expects they'll go off and talk to someone. When you're a guy you're really not allowed to do that. I guess its pretty hard being a guy because there are so many things a normal person would probably do, but your're just not expected to!"</div> <div> <IMG SRC="0b0a9100.gif" border=0 width="425" height="16" ALIGN="BOTTOM" HSPACE="0" VSPACE="0"></div> <div> "It's one of the most wonderful things about our son.
