NVR: the Podcast
The Boys We Cannot Give Up On: Our Duty
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, Dr Peter Jakob, Mary-Jo Land and Kerry Shoesmith turn to the boys who worry us: those who withdraw inward, and those whose behaviours are becoming dangerous. We talk honestly about the pull to look away or predict dark futures, and how NVR helps us stay present and stand against the risk, never giving up on the boy.
