What It Really Means To Be A Boy Mum

MAMAMIA PODCASTS
About this episode

With the news often highlighting the darker side of what men are capable of, raising a boy in 2024 can feel daunting and lets be honest a little bit anxiety-inducing.

Annaliese and Tegan, both moms to boys, are inspired by these challenges to teach their sons how to be good partners, sons, and friends.

Plus, Sarah Marie tackles a rather cringy problem: why do we insist on asking if a 4-year-old has a boyfriend or girlfriend? They're just four!
