How to raise boys to be upstanders, not bystanders

Original: How to raise boys to be upstanders, not bystanders: The Parenting Shift

A parenting feature argues that raising boys today means teaching them to be 'upstanders' — people who speak up against bullying, sexism or injustice — rather than passive bystanders. It outlines practical shifts for parents, including modelling intervention, encouraging empathy and giving boys language to challenge peers' behaviour. The piece is drawing attention among parents and educators debating how to shape boys' behaviour.

Why now: Ongoing public debate about boys' behaviour, masculinity and how parents should respond to bullying and harassment.
