From social media comparisons to academic and athletic
expectations, today’s teens are facing unprecedented pressure—and it’s showing up in ways parents might not expect.
In this episode, Grant helps to shine a light on the often-overlooked struggles of teen boys. While boys may not express anxiety and
depression in the same way as girls, the impact can be just as serious.
Grant explains how boys often shut down or act out when overwhelmed, with behaviors like physical altercations, risky driving, or emotional withdrawal masking deeper mental health concerns. The episode
encourages parents to rethink traditional “tough guy” narratives and create space for vulnerability.
Tips include engaging boys during activities, asking open-ended questions about their feelings, and offering nonjudgmental support.
The goal: help boys understand that it’s okay to not be okay—and that talking about it is a sign of strength.
Whether you're raising a son, a daughter, or simply want to better understand the pressures facing today’s teens, this series offers timely
insight and actionable advice for families.
