Are Kids Today Too Soft?


Listen Later

Growing up today is not what used to be 50, even 30 years ago. Since the advent of the internet, cell phones, and social media, the way in which kids spend their time has changed dramatically. As a result, parents have had to adapt when it comes to parenting style leading to a generation of kids that have been overly-sheltered and coddled.

Now, it's still a complex topic. Arguably, when raising kids in the past, parents were too little involved in their children's activities and whereabouts. With parents being more mindful of their kid's doings, perhaps children today are less likely to get into trouble. There are definitely pros to parents being involved in their children's life, but just how much is too much? And are today's children and teens benefiting from this style of helicopter parenting? Those are just some of the questions Josh and Stephanie attempt to answer in today's episode.
