BOY CRISIS IN AMERICA! Suicide and much, much more!
Show Guest: John Gray, PhD
John Gray, PhD, co-author of Boy Crisis with Warren Farrell, PdD, declare that dad-deprivation is a significant predictor of the increasing rate of male suicide, drug overdose, obesity and withdrawal into video game addiction. It even predicts by age 9 a shorter life expectancy as determined by shorter telomeres, protective end caps of chromosomes.
Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell revealed on CBS’ “60 Minutes” the peril posed by “young males”. He stated, “In my half-century of research on boys and men, I have discovered that there is, in fact, a boy crisis, that it is a global crisis, and that it is particularly egregious in America."
According to Gray and Farrell, it is a crisis of mental health. They also contend that it is also a crisis of education. Worldwide, 60% of the students who achieve less than the baseline level of proficiency in any of the three core subjects of the Program for the International Assessment are boys. Even boys’ IQs are dropping.
