Shownotes
Sports betting is everywhere. It’s in the games our sons watch, the podcasts and YouTube channels they follow, and the conversations happening around them. And as online gambling becomes more mainstream, are we stopping long enough to think about what that could mean for our sons?
In this Mom’s Perspective™ episode of Raising Boys with Purpose™, we’re talking about sports betting, online gambling, and why this is a conversation worth having with our teen boys and young adult sons.
But this isn’t about giving moms one more thing to worry about. It’s about understanding the world our sons are growing up in, helping them recognize potential pitfalls, and giving them the information and guidance they need to make wise choices as they move toward adulthood.
Because we can’t protect our sons from everything they’ll encounter—but we can prepare them to navigate it.
