In Which I Am SHOCKED! CALL IN SHOW

Topic: Insomnia and parental neglect

"I have two problems to talk about, although maybe they're one.

"I've suffered from insomnia for a long time now and medical interventions are not helping. I heard Stefan talk about his own a few times, and thought he might be able to help.

"Also, although I'm in my mid-40s, I only recently came to understand how badly, in some respects, my parents neglected me as a child, and I'm trying to figure out how to come to terms with that, and especially how to do better with my own children, whom I fear, lacking a better example, I'm doing the same with.

"To be more specific, growing up, my parents didn't really give me any advice or instruction about things like making friends, girls, building a career, almost anything. And I now I DON'T KNOW WHAT THAT ADVICE IS SUPPOSED TO BE for my own sons.

"Thanks for your work, Mr. Molyneux, whether or not I get to talk with you again."

Additionally, Stefan explores the media's portrayal of motherhood, where traditional roles are often marginalized, while unattached personas receive acclaim.
