No-Hugs Christmas & Where Are All The Weird Kids
Category: Kids & family

Description:

The Christmas rush has officially brought a new generational conflict: Grandparenting on Eggshells. We unpack the tension between teaching kids bodily autonomy and avoiding the Grandma guilt trip.

Plus, where did all the weird kids go? We blame late-stage capitalism, social media surveillance, and a collective fear of deviance for the new conformity epidemic.

And, our hosts have had a few epiphanies this week. Between sending your kids on an errand and rewatching a Christmas classic, we're realising just how much the mental load has increased for parents.
