À propos de cet audio

This week on The Idea Of…, Bassey and Mike explore what they’re calling “parental puberty”—that strange, emotional, confusing phase when your kids are almost adults but still deeply need guidance... and groceries.

From kettlebell-induced back pain to why Black boys laughing triggers white authority figures, this episode dives into how we’re raising our kids, what age-appropriate really means, and why both Black girls and boys are being rushed into adulthood by culture, media, and misguided grown folks.

We also touch on:

  • How generational trauma shapes parenting styles

  • Why parents feel guilty for giving boundaries

  • The disappearing middle ground between childhood and adulthood

  • Shoutouts to Wu-Tang, Tyler the Creator, and the teenage logic behind crop tops
