Present Absentee Parents

from You Might Need To Hear This · host Rico and Key

In this real talk episode of "You Might Need to Hear This," your hosts Rico and Key get into the nitty-gritty of what it means when folks are physically around but emotionally MIA in their kids' lives. This present absentee parenting vibe is more common than many wanna admit, and it's leaving deep marks on our youngins' hearts and minds, shaping how they see themselves and the world. Rico and Key break down the layers, from the hustle and bustle that keeps us from being all in, to the historical baggage we carry that sometimes makes us put up walls where we should be building bridges. They bring in voices from the community, dropping gems from therapists to everyday peeps who've lived it, all shedding light on how this emotional distance plays out in Black families. Let's talk about it!
