Let Teenagers Be Teenagers

Steve Scaffidi and Kristin Brey ask a question that’s getting harder to answer: where are teenagers actually supposed to hang out? As more businesses and public spaces restrict teens, they discuss summer jobs, screen time, and whether adults have helped create the online generation they complain about. Later, the hosts react to Islamophobic social media posts from New Berlin’s longtime mayor and hear from a Muslim resident who knows him personally. Motherhood for Good founder Kate Duffy also joins to discuss teens, school-issued technology, life as an influencer, and Wisconsin politics.
