Changes in boys

• Testes and penis: Testes grow and the penis becomes larger.
• Voice: Voice deepens as the voice box grows; voice may crack during the change.
• Facial, pubic, and body hair: Hair appears on the face, underarms, chest, and pubic area.
• Muscles and height: Rapid growth in height and increased muscle mass.
• Erections and ejaculation: Spontaneous erections and wet dreams (nocturnal emissions) start; ejaculation is how semen is released.
• Skin and hair: Increased oiliness and acne possible.
• Emotions: More mood changes and interest in sex and relationships.

• The lesson: "No" is a full sentence. It is not an invitation to negotiate, prove your worth, or demand an explanation.
• The skill: Grieving disappointment without anger. Boys must learn to say, "I'm really disappointed, but I respect your decision," and walk away with their dignity intact.
