Why are people getting psychologically sicker and sicker despite there being more therapists and more mental health awareness? How does having experienced “trauma” when younger impact one's Bechirah Chofshis and being responsible for your own actions? Do therapists focus too much on “trauma”? Should podcasts, shiurim, etc. have “trigger warnings” to warn those with sensitivities that they should not watch/listen? Do we need to use someone's chosen pronouns, even calling a man by “she/her” and a woman by “he/his”? What criteria should we use for finding a good therapist?

This episode has serious Adult Content Episode 75: The Sexual Miseducation of Religious Adolescents Spurred by Dr. Shloimie Zimmerman's recent book titled “From Boys to Men,” Rabbi Kivelevitz chairs this panel discussion with Pro. Juni and Rabbi Shmuel Skaist who is a noted educator, mentor, and psychotherapist specializing in sexual addictions. Dr. Zimmerman's underlying premise, which the panelists fully endorse, is that adolescents will persist in some sexual behaviors (especially masturbation) regardless of any educational efforts. R. Kivelevitz applauds the book as a valiant effort to deal with the “guilt spirals” which youngsters experience around masturbation, especially as the book could potentially result in a backlash from the organized religious educational establishment. Prof. Juni notes that such reactions have been commonplace toward researchers who broached sexual taboos even in academia (e.g., the Kinsey Reports). Juni's main critique of the book highlights its narrowness of focus. His specific points are: 1) Masturbation should not be stressed to the exclusion of other challenges of adolescent sexuality (e.g., pornography); 2) The book should not be limited to boys while excluding girls; 3) The issue of homosexuality cannot be ignored; 4) The book should not have been addressed to parents / educators; rather it would best be addressed to adolescents; 5) Since the intent is to minimize tension and maladjustment of adolescents, the main focus should be on sexual development issues rather than Halachic challenges. Expanding on the latter point, Juni notes the emotional difficulties around sexual development among religious youth does NOT revolve around the violation of religious percepts. Rather, they are driven by erroneous assumptions by the young person that s/he is different from his/her peers and that there is something wrong with her/him – which is often verbalized as “I must be crazy.” These issues are identical to those of irreligious youth. Thus, claims Juni, all that is needed here is a very precise message which stresses statistical normality rather than Halachic percepts. That message – The behaviors you engage in related to sexual curiosity -- including masturbation, sexual exploration with others, and porn watching -- are behaviors which ALL of your peers (including your religious peers) engage in very frequently. That message would dispel the erroneous assumptions which drive the guilt spiral and emotional pathology among youngsters, even when they are taught that these behaviors violate Halacha. R. Skaist argues forcefully that what is needed to deal with the decompensatory results of miseducation is a concerted effort to teach what is normal, rather than being limited to teaching what behaviors are not desirable. Adolescents need to know that sexuality should be part of a general emotionally positive relationship with another individual which includes much more than physical interaction. R. Skaist also deplores the differential tracks in sex education of boys vs. girls, which then potentially portends relationship problem in marital couples. Juni amplifies this position by noting that members of each gender often end up with a negative perception of their spouses as they conflate their negative views of sexuality with their partners. R. Kivelevitz explores the Halachic stance toward masturbation with Dr. Juni and R. Skaist. Apparently, some authorities view the ban on masturbation as applying solely to cases where it is used as a method of birth prevention by a married couple. Knowing that some authorities are not categorically opposed to masturbation may suffice to minimize the overwhelming guilt which some religious adolescents experience. R. Kivelevitz raises the issue of pornography viewing. R. Skaist dispels some erroneous ideas of how explicit sexual material might be used in psychotherapy. He argues that the real danger of pornography is that it leaves viewers with false ideas and unrealistic perceptions of what sexuality entails, with the chief deficit being that it eschews the crucial interpersonal component in an emotional relationship. Taking this a step further, Prof. Juni argues that the accurate depiction of sexuality does NOT constitute pornography unless it enhances sexual depersonalization, one-sidedness, or abuse. Since both of the panel's experts agree that misinformation is behind sexual maladjustment which occurs during adolescence, R. Kivelevitz raises the argument used by some that co-education minimizes distortions about the other gender and enhances cross-gender relationship capacity at this crucial developmental stage. While the panelists agreed that youngsters raised in co-ed environments have a better sense of the other gender at an earlier age, these youngsters are still described as subject to the vagaries of misinformation. As R. Skaist puts it, “they still have problems, although the problems may be different ones.” R. Kivelevitz concludes from Dr. Zimmerman's approach that it would make sense for Yeshivos to offer greater variety in activities, sports, and leisure to distract youngsters from sexual preoccupation. While agreeing that such a variety would be beneficial to all, the panelists argue that “distractions” from sexuality are not psychologically effective or feasible, and certainly would not address the problem at hand. Rather, proper education – especially one that counters misconceptions and harmful notions – is the key to proper adjustment. Prof. Juni is one of the foremost research psychologists in the world today. He has published ground-breaking original research in seventy different peer reviewed journals and is cited continuously with respect by colleagues and experts in the field who have built on his theories and observations. He studied in Yeshivas Chaim Berlin under Rav Yitzchak Hutner, and in Yeshiva University as a Talmid of Rav Joseph Dov Soloveitchik. Dr. Juni is a board member of the Association of Orthodox Jewish Scientists and has regularly presented addresses to captivated audiences. Associated with NYU since 1979, Juni has served as Director of PhD programs, all the while heading teams engaged in cutting-edge research. Professor Juni's scholarship on aberrant behavior across the cultural, ethnic, and religious spectrum is founded on psychometric methodology and based on a psychodynamic psychopathology perspective. He is arguably the preeminent expert in Differential Diagnostics, with each of his myriad studies entailing parallel efforts in theory construction and empirical data collection from normative and clinical populations. Professor Juni created and directed the NYU Graduate Program in Tel Aviv titled Cross-Cultural Group Dynamics in Stressful Environments. Based in Yerushalayim, he collaborates with Israeli academic and mental health specialists in the study of dissonant factors and tensions in the Arab-Israeli conflict and those within the Orthodox Jewish community, while exploring personality challenges of second-generation Holocaust survivors. Below is a partial list of the professional journals where Professor Juni has published 120 theoretical articles and his research findings (many are available online): Journal of Forensic Psychology; Journal of Aggression, Maltreatment, and Trauma; International Review of Victimology; The Journal of Nervous and Mental Disease; International Forum of Psychoanalysis; Journal of Personality Assessment; Journal of Abnormal Psychology; Journal of Psychoanalytic Anthropology; Psychophysiology; Psychology and Human Development; Journal of Sex Research; Journal of Psychology and Judaism; Contemporary Family Therapy; American Journal on Addictions; Journal of Criminal Psychology; Mental Health, Religion, and Culture. As Rosh Beis Medrash, Rabbi Avraham Kivelevitz serves as Rav and Posek for the morning minyan at IDT. Hundreds of listeners around the globe look forward to his weekly Shiurim in Tshuvos and Poskim and Gaonic Literature. Rav Kivelevitz is a Maggid Shiur for Dirshu International in Talmud and Halacha as well as a Dayan with the Beth Din of America.

How should I react when the “Pride Parade” goes by my home in Yerushalayim? How should I explain the rainbow flag to my 10-year-old? Are we being influenced by secular values? If so, how are we seeing those influences? How do we strengthen our own values? Is being active in the rainbow movement worse than Chilul Shabbos?

What words come to mind when you hear the phrase "teenage boys"? Messy? Stinky? Frustrating? Lazy? Moody? Dangerous? Teen boys can be all of those things. (So can teen girls!) But there's also a lot more beneath the surface, and if we're to effectively parent and educate our teen boys, we have to go deep. We need to remind ourselves -- and each other -- that teenage boys are complex human beings who deserve our respect and support. "Inside every teenage boy is a 4-year-old who is confused about life and desperate to know that you will love him unconditionally -- especially when he cannot love himself," says Maggie Dent, Australia's "boy champion" and author of From Boys to Men: Guiding Our Teen Boys to Grow Into Happy, Healthy Men. Though our first instinct is often to come down hard on our boys when they fail to follow our rules or meet expectations, Maggie suggests trying kindness instead. Most boys feel terrible when they mess up, whether they show us that or not; our lectures and punishments further add to their self-loathing -- and cause them to distrust our love for them. Going against the grain and offering your son kindness and compassion in lieu of punishment may strengthen your connection and help your son feel safe enough to share what's really going on. "We don't think teenage boys are sensitive, but they are," Maggie reminds us. "What we see on the outside is not necessarily what's going on inside." In this episode, Jen, Janet & Maggie discuss: Why teenage boys seem so confused, scattered and disorganized Teen boys' fear and anxiety How shame shapes (& limits) boys Kindness vs. harsh discipline How to get teenage boys to listen How roughhousing teaches boundaries Helping boys connect during the pandemic Why you don't necessarily need to worry if your son lose his temper while gaming online with friends Surrounding boys with stories of good men Talking to boys about tough stuff Moms' role in boys' lives Links we mentioned (or should have) in this episode: maggiedent.com — Maggie’s website.

Maggie Dent and I have a really fascinating chat about raising teenage boys and touch on lots of tips from her new book: From Boys to Men: Guiding teen boys to grow into healthy, happy men. Amongst other things we discuss: The inner workings of the mind and body of teenage boys and how knowing this can seriously help; tips for chatting to your teenage boy that will keep the peace and defuse conflict; how to "unstick" your unmotivated son; the importance of healthy role models and what to do if Dad is not present or setting a good example; and Maggie's thoughts on how technology can affect your teen boy with key points to deal with it.
How do we help boys listen & learn? Image by Andrew Steele via Flickr In month whatever of the pandemic, we're all grappling with a lot of tough questions, including what to do about school and injustice and inequality. We can't give you any easy answers regarding schooling during the cornonavirus pandemic or the fight for equality and justice. There aren't any easy answers to those complex situations. However, we CAN equip you with some information and strategies that will help boys listen and learn. In this Listener Q & A, we discuss male communication and learning during a pandemic. Jacquie asks: How are these new [pandemic-related] policies going to make school even harder for our boys? Talking about social distancing, less chance to play with others... Ashley asks: Why don't males listen? What am I doing wrong? Leah asks: What does "use 80% less words" look like in practice? Leah says: I find it fascinating watching how my older son (age 23) is 'cutting the apron strings' and gravitating toward his dad.So my questions are: When can we expect this to happen? How do we make that process as pain-free as possible (or, in reverse, make it angst-ridden)? What is the science behind them needed to do that? Why is it important? In this episode, Jen & Janet discuss: How parents can support schools and learning during the pandemic Meeting boys' need for movement and connection in an era of social distancing When to opt-out of school Accepting your kids' "normal" What's really going on when boys "don't listen" How to get your son to listen (Spoiler alert: Connect before you direct.)

As my children get older, I often think about what’s ahead of me. And with a 6 and 7-year-old it’s the tween and teen stage. Just as I used to say to my parents “you don’t understand what it’s like to be young”, I now no longer understand the world my girls are growing up in. But today’s episode isn’t about girls, it’s about boys. But even as a mother of two girls, I took so much away from today’s conversation. Our guest today is the fantastic Maggie Dent, a well-known Australian author, parenting and resilience educator, and one of Australia’s favourite boy experts. Maggie is a mother of four now grown up boys and she has just published a new book entitled From Boys to Men: guiding our teen boys to grow into happy, healthy men. In her new book, Maggie explores how for boys, adolescence can be a confusing minefield and parents are often bewildered as to how to best guide their precious sons. She looks at how many parents wake one day to find that their beautiful little boys have grown into silent, withdrawn, sometimes angry and often unmotivated tweens and teens. Today we talk about so much – from how teens are defined by their relationship with the online world to how children are experiencing digital abandonment from their parents (this really made me stop and think) to mental illness to violence. We cover some big topics today: Why adolescence is a completely confusing journey of change and up to age 15 is a time of incredible vulnerability for our boys. The shift in the relationship between an adolescent boy and his parents and how parents really miss their boys in this time. What’s really happening in the teen brain? How adolescent boys will gradually start reconnecting to you around 16–17 as the later stages of puberty kick in. How our boys are growing up in very different worlds to the one we grew up in – and some of the most significant challenges. The developmental hunger to be accepted. Why sexting images is something a lot of parents worry about. How prevalent violence is – can you talk about the impact this is having on teen boys. How teens are defined by their relationship with the online world. Boy experiencing digital abandonment from their parents. Mental illness.

This week's podcast episode is the second part of a two-part conversation on “Race And The Church.” In today's episode, Warren and Jason are joined again by two of the three guests from part 1 to hear about their experiences, stories and perspectives as black Christians in America. As our country grapples with issues around race and racism, we hope these conversations will be informative and insightful regarding the ways in which those conversations specifically play out within a church context. Churches remain one of the most segregated spaces in American life, and that can create issues and — in the words of our guests — “dissonance” within many Christians. Some of the challenges and issues created by this reality are obvious, but others are more subtle and nuanced. We hope you'll take time to listen, reflect and join us in considering how the church can offer helpful voices, perspectives and initiatives as we collectively move forward. Chris Daughtery is the author of the book entitled From Boys to Gentlemen and founder of a mentoring program of the same name dedicated to developing life skills for at risk kids. His book is a tool for healing child parent relationships. He is a motivational speaker, husband, and father of 4 boys. He lives in Abilene, Texas. Tomishia Williams is originally from Bermuda, but she now lives in Temple, Texas and has been a regular member of The Vine Church for almost 4 years. Raised outside of the US and as a Muslim, Tomishia's spiritual journey and experiences with race and the church provide a unique perspective that challenges American notions of what it means to practice their faith.

Want to know how to motivate boys?Toss out your outdated beliefs about boys and men, says Maggie Dent, Australia's "boy champion" and author of From Boys to Men: Guiding Our Teen Boys to Grow Into Healthy, Happy Men. "Our boys aren't these tough, unfeeling humans," she says. "They've got incredibly tender hearts, and with appropriate guidance they can grow to shine."Boys Don't Want to FailBoys don't want to disappoint their parents. Or themselves. They don't want failing grades, lost homework, and dozens of uncompleted assignments. It may seem that way -- otherwise, they'd just do their work, right? But the reality is young, tween, and teen boys are still growing; they are still developing their organization and time management skills and sometimes (Ok, often), they fall behind. Nagging and browbeating them is not helpful. ("Of course that's not going to bring out the best in our boys," Maggie says.)"We've got to be careful that we don't treat our boys harshly," Maggie says. Instead, "we really need to build understanding so we can support them and help them navigate the world." Yet in many places, shame and punishment are still the primary tools used to "motivate" boys.Motivating BoysThe neurobiological changes of male puberty can actually affect boys' motivation -- and explaining that fact to young boys may prevent some negative self-talk that could otherwise further thwart their motivation.Helping boys understand that relevance of school assignments and house rules to their lives can also increase their motivation. A boy who knows why something is important to his life (and how it will help him with things that matter to him) is more likely to follow through than a boy who doesn't understand why you want him to do something that seems absolutely irrelevant to him.Boys may also need adult assistance to break down overwhelming, seemingly insurmountable tasks into smaller bits. Instead of telling a boy with failing grades to "bring up your grades," work with him to identify one subject to focus on. Together, develop a plan to pull up his grades in that one class.
