Episode Synopsis

Across homes, schools, and society, boys are navigating a silent crisis. They're more likely to drop out of school, face physical punishment, emotional neglect, and are often told to 'man up' instead of speak up.They’re trapped in what we call ‘The ManBox’, a culture that forces boys to suppress emotion, value aggression, and shy away from vulnerability. It’s no surprise many of them grow up confused, disconnected, or worse, angry and broken.
