Men's health article

This article was inspired by this website 

which encourages young boys and men to speak up about their problems and emotional health.   

My personal new year’s resolutions for 2012 is to help boys and men to permit themselves to confidently and wholeheartedly speak up and talk openly about their problems or whatever is on their mind. I believe that we all have a responsibility as members of society to encourage young boys and men to speak up as much as possible without being self-conscious rather than using harmful coping methods.

The question then becomes: How is this possible? Well, I believe it all start in one’s home and I think that dads have a big part to play by committing themselves to supporting their sons throughout their lives.

I guess if you’re a friend or a teacher and you see a student or friend going through a difficult time then I’d advise you to ask them how they’re feeling and slowly encourage them to speak up.

So, the bottom line is that speaking up is no insult to your manhood.
