If you ask a boy, ‘How did that make you feel?’ he very often won’t know how to respond. He’ll talk instead about what he did or plans to do about the problem. Some boys don’t even have the words for their feelings – sad or angry or ashamed – for instance. A large part of our work with boys and men is to help them understand their emotional life and develop an emotional vocabulary.
