Gen X kids were left to their own devices as latchkey kids. Now they’re raising Gen Z, and it’s definitely not as freewheeling. David French is an opinion columnist at The New York Times, and he joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the over-parenting of Gen X – including constant monitoring and check-ins with teachers – and the anxiety showing up in Gens Z and Alpha.
