Thank you for having me on the show! I wanted to make a quick ammendment to what i said about the New Jersey / Glen Park gang rape case; the boys who were not able to watch and left the scene did *not* report the incident to teachers or any other authority, which in itself is not exemplary of empathy. It still strikes me as significant that the the boys who left had sisters, and the boys who were perpetrators did not have sisters. I feel that in here somewhere is a key towards cultivating more empathy in boys towards girls and women.
ReplyDeleteThanks again, i am still listening and appreciating multiple perspectives being shared on this show!
