And another thing. One 127 00:06:06,085 --> 00:06:08,245 Speaker 2: one thing I would really recommend to to parents as 128 00:06:08,245 --> 00:06:10,244 Speaker 2: you can get older and start to leave home is 129 00:06:10,565 --> 00:06:14,364 Speaker 2: you have to find these pockets of connection because as 130 00:06:14,404 --> 00:06:16,724 Speaker 2: she wants to leave home, they've got this whole of 131 00:06:16,765 --> 00:06:19,044 Speaker 2: the life that you are you don't know that much about, 132 00:06:19,364 --> 00:06:21,205 Speaker 2: and so you can quite easy get quite disconnected and 133 00:06:21,205 --> 00:06:23,844 Speaker 2: then almos get irritated. They start talking about stuff you 134 00:06:23,924 --> 00:06:27,164 Speaker 2: really don't know their interior world. And so whenever they're 135 00:06:27,164 --> 00:06:30,125 Speaker 2: into TV shows or reading books, I always make sure 136 00:06:30,164 --> 00:06:33,124 Speaker 2: that I will read and get up on whatever they're reading. 137 00:06:33,205 --> 00:06:35,205 Speaker 2: So we've got something to talk about then. And there's 138 00:06:35,245 --> 00:06:37,325 Speaker 2: like people like sharing something that they're interested in. So 139 00:06:37,685 --> 00:06:40,005 Speaker 2: my daughter's got into My oldest daughter, Ruby is twenty one. 140 00:06:40,125 --> 00:06:43,964 Speaker 2: She's really into this brilliant ABC podcast I've been running 141 00:06:43,964 --> 00:06:46,365 Speaker 2: for a couple of years since the Mushroom trial, and 142 00:06:46,445 --> 00:06:49,044 Speaker 2: it's called The Case of Two Brilliant Journalists. 143 00:06:49,085 --> 00:06:50,324 Speaker 1: I cannot recommend enough. 144 00:06:50,604 --> 00:06:54,084 Speaker 2: It's a really great series of journalism where they follow 145 00:06:54,125 --> 00:06:57,685 Speaker 2: true crime court case and there's one the moment that 146 00:06:57,724 --> 00:07:01,124 Speaker 2: they've got called the Two Intruders. The Case of the 147 00:07:01,164 --> 00:07:05,884 Speaker 2: Two Intruders. It's an incredible, barely believable story and the 148 00:07:05,924 --> 00:07:09,125 Speaker 2: police sting operation involving setting up eight gangs. 149 00:07:09,245 --> 00:07:11,925 Speaker 1: It's incredible.
