The Frowners

5 Dec 2008

By Gregory Warner

Meet Emanuel Frowner. Ever since he was a little boy, Emanuel was... different. He had trouble making friends. He had trouble looking you in the eye. His brother thought he needed psychological help, but his dad didn't think there was anything seriously wrong, and worried that a diagnosis would hold him back. Flash forward 25 years, Emanuel's now a grown man who's sought a psychological diagnosis. What he finds out will change everything. But the tough question remains, did his dad's attitude end up helping or hurting him in the end? Reporter Gregory Warner takes us on a search for answers.
