Why we must talk to our Boys the way we talk to our Girls | Cara Natterson | TEDxCrossroadsSchool

We live in a world where we are sometimes​ overly sensitive to the needs of our young girls as they reach puberty. As a result, we neglect the needs of our young boys. New York Times best-selling author and pediatrician​ Cara Natterson explains why this must change. Cara Natterson is a pediatrician, the founder of Worry Proof Consulting, and the New York Times best-selling author of the country’s most widely-read books about puberty and growing up. What she loves most about her job is translating complex scientific information so that it is understandable and actionable. Natterson teaches tweens and teens in classrooms, speaks to large audiences of the parents raising them, and consults with companies – from start-ups to Fortune 500s – who market to young consumers. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
