S1 Ep 17: Rainman - Emotional Cutoff, Vulnerability and Tom Cruise

This week on Pop Parenting we are looking at the 1988 hit
movie Rainman. This movie leads us to tracking the growth of the
main character Charlie Babbitt, played by Tom Cruise, and how in
order to actually grow up and get a life, Charlie has to drop his
guard, get vulnerable and understand what it means to be part of
a family. We look at emotional cutoff, the quieter twin to
physical cut off, and we decide on a movie for the next episode
so you can all watch it before we record! Check out Field of
Dreams next week.
