Summary
On this episode: Zak, Jamilah, and Elizabeth advise a mom who is ashamed of her teenager’s behavior. Her son and a friend were using the word ‘gay’ as an insult when talking about her son’s best friend behind his back. She’s already talked with him but she doesn’t know where to go from there.
Recommendations:
Jamilah recommends Black Panther: Wakanda Forever.
Elizabeth recommends the books Fatty Legs and When I Was Eight.
Zak recommends the Arthur podcast.
