About this listen

In this nostalgic episode of SoapBoxLex, we sit down with special guest Steve Mills to unpack what it really means to grow up in the 70s and 80s—and how wildly different it feels to raise kids today. From riding bikes until the streetlights came on to today’s world of smartphones, social media, and scheduled playdates, Steve reflects on the freedom, risks, and simplicity of childhood decades ago.Together, we explore how parenting has shifted from “figure it out” independence to constant connectivity, how technology has reshaped friendships and attention spans, and whether kids today are missing out—or just growing up differently. Along the way, we share plenty of laughs, a few “back in my day” moments, and some honest conversation about what we’ve gained (and maybe lost) along the way.Whether you grew up with Saturday morning cartoons and cassette tapes or you’re navigating screen time limits and parental controls, this episode will hit home.🎧 Tune in and join the conversation at https://soapboxlex.com
