In honor of Father's Day, Kevin and Niseema welcome Dr. Warren Farrell PhD, author of The Boy Crisis: Why Our Boys are Struggling and What We Can Do About It.
The crisis? More and more boys are growing up without fathers. This leads them to not only miss out on the father/son bond, but also to a higher likelihood of high school dropout, use of drugs, and a whole host of mental health vulnerabilities. Respecting the roles fathers can have with their sons gives us insight into how nurturing the "father instinct" leads to a more stable home, life, and society.
Dr. Warren Farrell's books include: The Myth of Male Power, Women Can't Hear What Men Don't Say, Does Feminism Discriminate Against Men? and Why Men Are The Way They Are.
