Boys

Boys are male children or young men. Boys typically go through a number of physical and emotional changes during their teenage years, as they transition from childhood to adulthood. Boys may face a range of challenges and opportunities during this time, including academic and social pressures, the formation of friendships and relationships, and the development of their own identities and interests. Boys may be raised by a variety of caregivers, including their parents, grandparents, or other family members, and they may be educated in a range of different settings, such as schools, homeschooling, or online learning. Boys are an important part of society, and they have the potential to contribute to the world in many positive ways.
