Raising young boys to become balanced gentlemen is a goal that families should place high on their priority lists. The reason why many perfectly well- behaved young men turn into monsters once they exit their homes, is difficult to fathom. Boys from families that never allow them to raise their voices at home suddenly become unfettered wrongdoers, once on the loose. The root causes for deviation from decency lie in the values that young men fail to imbibe while growing up. Making boys and girls work together in collective community activities is one way to instil balanced behavioural values.
