So that obviously they're going to spend hours on TikTok where people are talking to them and talking about their problems because they don't have anything resembling that in real life.

Yeah, I think in the modern world, like adults, they view everything as like imposing on their children. So we kind of became suspicious of anyone who's authoritative. So we think they're being controlling or like old fashioned. So adults kind of politely stepped back and kind of allow children just to become themselves and act the way they want.

Yeah. And, you know, there's obviously an element of that that's important in parenting. But I think what happened is parents stepped back. So they just became like our best friends.

we got rid of anything that was like more substantial guidance so I think if you think of therapy culture today a lot of people think oh if you're an anxious young person you have more advice than ever like you have all this guidance but I actually think modern culture has very little to say to anxious young people because we got rid of anything more substantial because we thought it was judgmental so you can't tell someone how to live their life or what to do

We got rid of anything to do with God or religion because that was superstitious. We stopped appealing to moral character and telling them they should improve themselves and be better because that's also judgmental and, you know, claiming that there's a right and wrong.

But then it becomes someone who doesn't know you. So let's say you have a relationship problem, like you're a young woman who has met someone and you're not sure about him. The average young woman will now go on YouTube and turn to the dating experts and the attachment style.
