What questions should I ask myself to raise a more conscious human being? What if a family member is teaching my child values that I don't agree with? My child is older, is it too late to start having such conversations? What if the conversation is uncomfortable to me? What are the gender stereotypes in my home? Where is the line between pushing an agenda and raising an open-hearted boy? Should I speak to girls and boys differently about gender? The COVID pandemic has affected my child's behavior, what do I do? How can we help my child to develop awareness and empathy towards others? Join us as we answer these and other questions in our chat with clinical psychologist Bobbi Wagner, author of the book Raising Feminist Boys. We talked about building trust with our children, supporting them in their socio-emotional development, and raising them to be self-aware, empathetic, and emotionally healthy human beings.
