Young Men Need Help
Over the past few decades, the number of young men turning to their parents for personal support has more than doubled, with 36% now reaching out to them first. Meanwhile, the number of close friendships Americans have has significantly declined, with only 27% reporting three or fewer close friends in 1990.
