“My problem with gentle parenting is it’s too much parental talking - when you’re raising a boy you’ve got to learn how to do it  in a sentence or two.”

This is just one insight that today’s guest, Michael Thompson, shares for how we can support our boys’ development, as well as our relationship with them, in and out, of the classroom.
