Latchkey Kids to Helicopter Moms
from Sedate Me · host Sedate Me Pod
Today, we’re diving into the parenting gap — not between us and our kids, but between us and the people who raised us. That’s right, we're talking about the Boomer parents who let us ride in the back of a station wagon with no seatbelt, gave us Tang instead of therapy, and somehow raised a generation that now overthinks every snack and screen time limit.So what did they get right? What are we doing differently — maybe too differently? And how did “Because I said so” turn into “Let’s name that big feeling”?Buckle up — or don’t, it’s not like our parents made us — because this one’s going to be a generational ride.
