The Hidden Psychology of Black Gen X Parents

Описание: Psychology of Black Gen X Parents

Nobody satisfies anybody with your parenting. But that's been the story for Black Gen X parents since day one; rewriting the rules with no instruction manual and no apology from the generation before them. In this video, Franklin looks at the psychology behind how Black Gen X parents are raising their kids differently; from money conversations that never happened in their homes growing up, to apologizing to their children when they mess up, to setting boundaries as grandparents that nobody saw coming. This isn't about blame. It's about understanding why you parent the way you do; and what it costs to be the one who breaks the cycle.
Franklin sees y'all. And y'all are doing better than you think.
