How and Why to Raise Boys to be Emotionally Literate

Identifying emotions and being comfortable with others who show emotion is an important, often under-discussed skill needed for success. Trouble is we don’t generally celebrate boys who talk feelings and we are left with men are are irritable and show anger as a primary emotion. Let’s change that. 

Join us as Executive Director of Care to Change, April Bordeau, and counselor at 
Care to Change, Mike Spencer, discuss how to raise boys who know and are comfortable with emotions. Listen to practical solutions for positive change for raising sons.
