    This show was discussed over nonacademic education like manners, values, and essential skills. The hosts were concerned that parents were not installing these values into their kids and this was because kids were having kids. They believe the problem is that there is no generation gap and it was stated that you’ll see grandmothers and mothers all at the local club.
