00:00As a mom of four boys and a pediatrician,
00:03it actually feels like a privilege to me
00:06to have the opportunity to raise boys to be empathetic.
00:12And one of the biggest pieces of that
00:14is giving, allowing them to have self-empathy.
00:19So creating space for them to have their feelings
00:23be seen and acknowledged and have that be okay.
00:28And giving them the space to be vulnerable
00:31so that they can recognize
00:33that other people may be feeling the same way, right?
00:37So if they're feeling upset or embarrassed,
00:40or if they feel like there's a certain way
00:44that they have to be,
00:45just giving them space to hear
00:48and understand what their experience is
00:51and to allow them to feel safe
00:57in having whatever their experience is.
