Just the tone of his voice conveys a lot of tranquility. Furthermore, the topic of adolescent emotions is very interesting.❤❤❤

Lisa saying that these displays of emotions almost entirely socially constructed, not biological, is just simply wrong. I would appreciate you challenging her on this, as I know you know better. It should be obvious that biology plays a role, across cultures, when boys show most emotions when competing, and not in other social settings. And still here, the display of emotions differ very much among the two sexes (anger in boys, crying in girls).
