106: Therapy. Should all teens get it? Also, do boys actually need male role models?

Send us a text

When an anonymous listener posted this question we thought it would be a great topic to discuss; one that many of our listeners could be wondering about. 

The listener said, Hello, I absolutely love your podcast. And here’s the question. Do you think all teens should go to therapy, just so they have a space to talk that isn’t a parent, family member or friend. I’ve been pondering this lately and trying to equip my kids with all the tools I feel they will need in life.

Feeling very empowered listening to the podcast. 

The other issue we discussed was an email in which a listener queried whether it's really that important for boys to have male teachers as role models; or even to have same sex role models at all.
