On this episode the ‘Geriatric’ Mamas open the episode by momsplaining the new parenting style that’s making its way into the spotlight, how to teach children important life lessons before they think you’re uncool, and then they dive into the viral Instagram post by @mamapsychologists about what millennial parents are teaching their children that they were NOT taught. It’s no secret that millennials feel spicy about this topic, they probably all need therapy, most are a little bitter tbh, slightly emotionally unstable; and of course, paranoid about leaving a spec of food on their plates at dinner time; but overall, they’re doing okay.
