Teaching Our Boys Consent & Respect in Dating

In a previous episode on sex and dating, we didn't focus as much as we could have on the boy's side of the conversation. How do we teach our sons and other young boys in our life how to respect women when it comes to dating? Well, we brought Dr. Gary Kirikilas back on to talk about just that.

He is a pediatrician in Phoenix, Arizona with a unique mobile practice, as well as a spokesperson for the AAP.

So in this follow-up show, Dr. Kirkilas covers consent, the public conversation that has grown around the topic in recent years, condoms, starting the conversation with our boys, and navigating sex, alcohol, and drugs.
