As the world becomes smaller and more connected, our communities continue to evolve into a blend of cultures with more families living farther apart from one another.  Our modern world demands a lifestyle that is different than what we may have been raised with. Distance, working grandparents, and limited or no contact with extended families are just some of the reasons we notice a growing trend of less extended family involvement in the raising of our children and it begs the question— what are we and our children missing out on?

In this episode, Mina and Bar dive deeper into their personal upbringings, discuss how dramatically different the rearing of their own children is and try to navigate the sense of familial loss they feel in their parenting journey.
