In this episode of The Parrot Side, we explore the theme of parenting boundaries with our special guest, Liz. The discussion begins with an examination of the ideal level of closeness between parents and their children, and whether traditional African parenting styles tend to discourage deep interpersonal relationships within the family.
We further delve into the delicate balance between sharing and oversharing personal information with one’s parents—questioning whether our restraint stems from a desire to protect them or from fear of their judgment.
Finally, we address how we might approach controversial issues as future parents, particularly those that conflict with conventional or religious beliefs, such as raising an LGBT child. The conversation offers thoughtful reflections on empathy, openness, and evolving parental roles in modern society.
