EP. 23 Birth of Life, Life of Birth.Pt.2

这一期的话题和我们之前的一期节目“Life of death, death of life”相呼应，这一次我们讲了“生”。就在上一集节目发出后第二天，Jojo 和 Mark一夜之间就真的成了父母。无论是他们夫妇本人，或者是观众，在收听下半集节目的时候，或许就有了一个不太一样的心态。在这一集里，我们聊了自己的叛逆，因此我们是不是可以对孩子的“叛逆”有更多的容忍。至于说要成为什么样的父母？是不是有一个范本？或者新一代的父母是不是一定就比上一代更好？对着这个事情，Jojo和Mark其实给出了意料之外的答案。那么这对模范夫妇是百分之百准备好了么？其实也没有，有句古话这么说：兵来将挡，水来土堰。这对夫妇互相协作，一起解决生活中的各种问题，何尝不是人生中最有意思的事情呢？This episode’s topic echoes one of our previous shows, “Life of Death, Death of Life” — but this time, we’re talking about “life.” Just a day after our last episode was released, Jojo and Mark literally became parents overnight. Whether it’s for them as a couple, or for the audience, listening to the second half of this two-part program might feel a little different now.In this episode, we talked about our own rebellious years, and wondered if that might make us more tolerant of “rebellion” in our children. As for what kind of parents one should be — is there a perfect model? Does being part of a new generation automatically make someone a better parent than the last? On this, Jojo and Mark gave some unexpected answers.And are this “model couple” one hundred percent ready? Not exactly. There’s an old saying: When the soldiers come, use generals to block them; when the flood comes, use earth to stop it. For Jojo and Mark, working together to tackle all kinds of challenges in life might just be one of the most interesting parts of the journey.JOJO’s Douyin ID: JoJo_somethingMark’s Douyin ID: 66448307009
