Loose Men star Jeff Brazier candidly discussed the challenges of parenting teenagers during Tuesday's edition of the hit ITV show
Loose Men star Jeff Brazier said "I've found it difficult" during a candid chat about parenting on Tuesday (April 1).
The popular ITV show aired a special edition today, with the male panel discussing important topics and breaking down stigmas around men's mental and physical health.
Craig Doyle returned to host the programme, and was joined by Loose Men regulars Jeff, Jordan Banjo and Iain Stirling.
Their conversation kicked off with the topical Netflix drama Adolescence, and its influence on today's youth.
Penned by Stephen Graham and Jack Thorne, the gripping drama narrates the tale of a 13-year-old boy named Jamie Miller, who is accused of murdering a schoolmate in a shocking knife crime, reports Wales Online.

Since its debut on Netflix earlier this month, the four-part series has sparked crucial discussions about online safety for young people.
During today's Loose Men, Jeff shed light on the difficulties of raising teenage boys, sharing his personal struggles with his sons Bobby, 21, and Freddy, 20.
"I'm almost envious that you guys have got a run-up to these kind of events, and we can have these conversations where you can be informed," he expressed to his co-panellists.
"Whereas I'm obviously now at the stage where mine are 20 and 21 and I'm looking back and reflecting on how I managed the phone scenario."

As much as we put the responsibility solely on our shoulders, and we obviously do our best to protect, sometimes people get to them."
Jeff added: "I've found it really difficult adjusting to the fact that I can't be the answer to everything, and I don't know how we pre-empt that."
The television star went on to share insights about the difficulties he faced while raising his sons as a single father, following the tragic loss of their mother, Jade Goody, to cervical cancer in 2009.
Emphasising the importance of communication, Jeff underlined: "I think it's a lot for parents to have to navigate on a daily basis."
