If you are raising boys, you need to listen to this episode. Dr Leonard Sax and I discuss the new content added to the latest edition of his book “Boys Adrift”. We discussed why boys fall behind their sisters in school and what parents and teachers can do about it. I also learned about the very real and scary reality of endocrine disruptors and how male testosterone levels are dropping which impacts many things, including motivation. He also gives some shocking information from his research where he had discussions with adolescent boys about pornography consumption and having AI girlfriends. Did you know that 39% of boys age 13 -17 have made deepfake porn of a classmate without her permission? Again, this is vital information for parents of boys. Please listen in and share.
