Summary
I think whether you're willing to acknowledge it or not, we are most definitely facing a crisis of our young men. From incarceration and suicide rates, to substance abuse issues, to failing and lagging societal metrics, it's safe (and, extremely tragic) to say that our boys are fighting an uphill battle.
My guest today is Dr. Warren Farrell, the author of The Boy Crisis and many other books written to explore society from the lens of both women and men. Today, we talk about the dangers of lacking structure and purpose, how the "dad-style" vs. the "mom-style" of parenting actually creates awareness and empathy, how dopamine secretion and other physiological responses assist boys and men in doing the right thing, and the dangers and destructive results of "dad-deprivation."
SHOW HIGHLIGHTS:
- Having the skillsets to be able to confront and to be compassionate
- Discussing the best way to measure success
- Teaching children to be empathetic
- Why social skills are so important for boys
- Fathers are critical in teaching postponed gratification
- How boys benefit from a mother's involvement
- Is it possible to "have it all" in career and parenting success
- How single moms can get male involvement
