Supporting Healthy Resistance Against Conformity and the Role of Parents

Our very young sons are hiding their powerful capacities for connection. Relying on years of research, Judy Chu explains exactly why this is happening and what the cost is to boys and men. This is a crucial listen for parents, but also for any who want to better understand the powerful internal emotional lives of very young boys and the ways in which we train them out of connecting.
Judy Chu is the author of When Boys Become Boys. Her work clearly defines the ways in which our dominant culture of masculinity is putting boys are risk for lives that are dramatically more isolated and challenging. Chu is the advocate many of us wished we had had in our corner when we were young. When she gets fired up in defense of boys, and calls out what our culture of masculinity continues to do to them, it is both uplifting and deeply inspiring.
