About this episode

No doubt you’ve heard at some point in your life that girls are more mature than boys. As a result, we tend to forgive childlike behaviour in men more easily, even in adulthood. Living with immature men can be a struggle for their partners. What’s more, Peter Pan syndrome is sometimes used as justification for behaviour that’s difficult to live with. You may remember that we discussed the topic in a previous episode of Do You Really Know. And another term for someone who displays Peter Pan Syndrome is a man child! What are the main characteristics of men children? Does it get better with time at least? What can you do to avoid this behaviour? In under 3 minutes, we answer your questions!
