Boys Don't

Synopsis:
Three monologues about the things boys don't do. The first one is actually about a boy who did cry when necessary - unlike the two generations of men above him who always had stiff upper lips. But at the funeral of his wife he noticed the grandfathers were crying. The next a boy because of mixed messages ends up in a big fight on the first day at Secondary School. The third about a boy who gets angry and violent. His mother gives him a notebook to write out his anger
