Summary
A Rite of Passage is a tradition that dates back as long as humans have walked this planet but it seems to be less and less common. And, unless a young man plays competitive sports, or participates in Scouting, or joins the military, he just isn't going to be initiated into manhood.
In fact, a lack of initiation into manhood has caused a lot of the problems we see with boys never leaving the nest.
So, today, I want to share the ins and outs of the Rite of Passage I created for my son and the six key components of any Rite of Passage so you can re-create your own.
