Let’s Begin…
Psychologist Philip Zimbardo asks, "Why are boys struggling?" He shares some stats (lower graduation rates, greater worries about intimacy and relationships) and the reasons behind them, while challenging the TED community to think about solutions.
By the time a young man is 21, he will have spent 10,000 hours (on average) playing video games, the majority of that time in isolation. Does this statistic surprise you? Why or why not? Why do you think it’s not the same for girls?
