Rites of Passage That Motivate Boys—Mighty Parenting 212 with Dr. Mark Schillinger

Rights of passage, especially those of transitioning from a teenager to an adult, are often critical to our teens’ self-identities and their motivation to move in the world.

Dr. Mark Schillinger joins Mighty Parenting podcast host Sandy Fowler in discussing how our current society and cultural habits have impacted our teens’ emotions, habits and future plans and how we can help motivate boys and girls into moving forward and finding who they can be as adults in today’s world.
