There have been some major societal, socioeconomic, cultural, and technological shifts over the past 150 years that have changed not just family structure, but who our children are becoming. In this episode, we ask the question: Is what culture is giving us right now beneficial for our family?

In Season 3, we’re looking to move “Beyond the Matrix,” asking the hard questions about how we lead our families. In episode 2, Josh takes a 30,000 foot view of the changes throughout the last 150 years in the Western world and the corresponding changes in family structure and child outcomes. For example, he talks about the generational trend from resourceful to entitled to anxious, and the societal factors at play.
