It’s not even the parents of teens. No, the true audience for Euphoria is parents of kids who are about 5 to 10 years old, who still have relatively good relationships with those kids but can see the storm clouds on the horizon. Criticizes Rue’s narration in the beginning. Says it feels like it must have been ripped off from a Hot Topic T-shirt  paranoia from the ’90s, reheated for today’s viewers. The point is to shock viewers by showing that teens are only doing drugs and having sex. The lack of technology at the center of some of these stories speaks to what Euphoria is really about: kids who were teens in the ’90s showing how their experiences would be if they are born in this generation .  It’s welcomed that Euphoria doesn’t tie Jules’s self-destructive streak to her transness but, instead, to her devastation in the wake of her parents’ divorce. It portrays Jules, not as a poster child for the Transgender community but rather, She’s just another troubled kid. - By Rob Harvilla (The Ringer) in his article “A Horrified Dad’s Guide to Not Watching ‘Euphoria’ HBO’s basically X-rated answer to Netflix’s “13 Reasons Why”the show’s main lesson is for parents to quit watching reality TV and go play with your kids before they turn into drugged-up, fornicating supervillains.  Show Contact Info:  Website: Http://Euphoria-Show.comEmail: [email protected] Page: https://www.facebook.com/Euphoria-Show-Recap-and-Review-427269344528417/Twitter: @SBlackbarTumblr: PodcastZombieLoveVoicemail: 210-538-4772 Music intro and outro provided by Bensound.com   please visit their site for great music downloads
