Dr Justin Coulson is the co-host of the popular TV program Parental Guidance , and of Australia’s top ranked parenting podcast, The Happy Families podcast. He is author of six family and parenting books, and has helped thousands of Australian families with his advice and research.
He’s disappearing. Behind the closed door, lost in screens, making choices that keep you up at night. He’s navigating a world designed to confuse him – algorithms designed to addict him – a world parents don’t understand and can’t break into. The headlines scream crisis. They warn us that boys are in deep trouble… and it’s getting worse.
But it doesn’t have to be like this.
Dr Justin Coulson has a different story to tell. In Boys, Coulson reveals what decades of research suggests: when boys get what they actually need, they thrive. Not through force or fixing, but through connection, meaningful challenge, and someone who refuses to give up on them.
This book hands you the ‘Playbook’. It cuts through the noise with practical, research-backed strategies for the battles you’re fighting right now. Gaming. Pornography. Self-control. Friendships. School motivation. How to discipline without destroying trust. How to stay close when he’s pushing away.
But beneath the tactics lies something more powerful: a vision of masculinity worth fighting for. Boys who help others feel safer and stronger. Who create surplus value. Who become not just good men, but the best version of themselves.

The ROI of Raising a Good Man
The cost of doing nothing is massive.
If we just let them drift, we lose them to the screens, to the apathy, and to a culture that doesn’t understand them.
But the return on investment for doing this work? It’s a relationship built on absolute trust. It’s a son who knows who he is and what he stands for. It’s watching your boy step into the world as a man of character—someone who protects, who contributes, and who makes everyone around him better.
You’ve got this. And I’ve got the playbook to help you do it.
