This week, we resume our discussion on the reasons why parents justify restricting their children's autonomy. We broaden our scope by looking at generation Z in general, using Billie Eilish and Greta Thunberg as examples of society's prejudice against youth. 

This episode, we take a look at how children are treated. We discuss ideas raised in the Not Overthinking podcast and Quill Rebecca Kukla's article titled Taking Children's Autonomy Seriously as a Parent. In particular, we talk about the ways children are treated differently and some of the reasons why parents justify limiting their children's autonomy. 

This week, Joshua, Elle, Adrian and Rachel talk about mistakes and getting into trouble. We start off by broadly discussing what we mean by mistakes. Then, we delve into how we got into trouble during our childhood and debate when it's appropriate (if ever) to cheat. We end by examining the effectiveness of caning as a method of punishment. 

This week Joshua, Adrian, Rachel and Elle chat about languages. We state the different languages we speak and discuss what it means to be bilingual or trilingual.

This episode, Rachel, Elle, Adrian and Joshua talk about what it means to be happy. We discuss the things that bring us happiness, such as productivity, body positivity, intrinsic value and entertainment. We ponder upon what colour we see happiness as and debate materialistic happiness. 

Continuing where we left off last week, Joshua, Rachel, Adrian and Joey delve deeper into the discussion of personality. We chat about traits we like/dislike and Dissociative Identity Disorder. Joshua also presents his Sims theory of personality.
