Episode description

John and Aimee discuss how technology and social media have changed the way teenagers interact and socialize.

As old millennials, they talk about their own childhood experiences in the pre-internet era and how kids today have constant access to their friends online.

They express concern that this is fueling rising rates of depression among teens due to a lack of in-person connection.

John and Aimee also talk about their son Michael making his high school baseball team and getting positive feedback from teammates and coaches IRL.

They hope sports and extracurriculars can help fill the social void for today's youth.

The It's Possible Podcast are the thoughts, musings, tips, and principles from John and Aimee Fairbanks on a variety of topics relating to raising kids, education, farming, and the circus that is their life.
