I'm sorry, but what do they mean?
OK, so what is something that every kid should ideally know how to do by the age of 10?
But many don't.
You had this teenager tell you it would actually be easier to defeat a monster in a video game than ask a girl to homecoming.
What was your response to him?
So she waited until they were out of that moment.
Okay.
I like that.
That's actually really good advice.
What percentage of these kids that struggle with anxiety and, you know, getting out and just like participating in social norms, I guess, are medicated?
I might say less than half would be my guess.
It's just interesting to me because, you know, one of the main side effects of antidepressants, anti-anxiety medication is anxiety and depression.
So I just, sometimes I wonder these kids that are put on these drugs, if it's actually making it worse for them, you know?
What is a failure that you should want your kid to experience before they leave your house?
You guys said that normal friendship conflict among kids is now being labeled toxic.
What does that mean?
You talk about kids who don't even want to sleep over at other people's houses because they don't want to be away from their parents anymore.
I would say that 98% of my audience does not allow sleepovers for their kids.
Is your argument that parents should allow sleepovers more often for their kids?
I feel like I hear from parents now saying they don't even let their kids sleep with their grandparents.
