And finding there an older male mentor. (I have the perfect person in my parish: former military, background in psychology and youth development. I am sure other places have resources like him as well!) [/quote]

Isn’t his dad the older male mentor? What does his dad say about the boy?[/quote]

Often times dads are not engaged with their kids in UMC families.

My DH is a travel sports coach and there are always a handful of boys that velcro to him. Dad always is not around in those situations. Very busy successful careers. It is NEVER the kid whose dad is bringing the kid to practice, never the kid whose dad is emailing and calling with questions.  The profile of these boys who are so thirsty for male attention are the ones where the mom is very obviously doing the heavy lifting.[/quote]
