1
00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: The Role of a Lifetime begins at eight point thirty

2
00:00:03,440 --> 00:00:06,760
Speaker 1: tomorrow on the ABC. This sounds like a bit of

3
00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:11,520
Speaker 1: a documentary situation with the difference. Here to tell us

4
00:00:11,240 --> 00:00:14,960
Speaker 1: what it's all about is the narrator, I guess of

5
00:00:15,040 --> 00:00:17,640
Speaker 1: the show, Amanda Kellogg, Good morning, Amanda. Am I right,

6
00:00:17,680 --> 00:00:18,400
Speaker 1: you're the narrator.

7
00:00:18,800 --> 00:00:22,720
Speaker 2: Well, hello, Clesyly, I'm I'm kind I'm the host, so host.

8
00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:23,279
Speaker 1: Yeah.

9
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 2: It's an unusual concept in that we have a sitcom family,

10
00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:32,279
Speaker 2: but where all these scenarios of modern parenting are playing out,

11
00:00:32,960 --> 00:00:36,200
Speaker 2: and then the characters who play Mum and Dad actually

12
00:00:36,280 --> 00:00:39,199
Speaker 2: go out into the real world as actual parents and

13
00:00:39,360 --> 00:00:42,159
Speaker 2: talk to experts about how we should be negotiating this

14
00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:46,959
Speaker 2: in our own family. So it's role playing. I think

15
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,760
Speaker 2: it probably has a bit of role play because why

16
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,159
Speaker 2: it's interesting to do this now is that we are

17
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:53,920
Speaker 2: the first generation, really who are trying to keep our

18
00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:56,560
Speaker 2: children safe in the real world and the online world

19
00:00:56,920 --> 00:01:00,120
Speaker 2: and dealing with stuff that our parents never had to

20
00:01:00,160 --> 00:01:02,680
Speaker 2: deal with, a whole lot of new stuff to navigate.

21
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:05,560
Speaker 3: Yeah, and they said parents, not unknowns. We're talking Kate

22
00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,360
Speaker 3: Richie and Nazim Hussein and getting some very good feedback

23
00:01:08,360 --> 00:01:10,640
Speaker 3: the show already some of the people who've seen the

24
00:01:10,640 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 3: previews and of course the trailer.

25
00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:16,520
Speaker 2: Oh fantastic. And part of this stuff is is that parents,

26
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,400
Speaker 2: what kids need from parents hasn't changed about love, support,

27
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:24,199
Speaker 2: understanding and all that kind of stuff. But the world

28
00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:27,479
Speaker 2: that the parents and the kids are navigating is so different,

29
00:01:27,480 --> 00:01:29,920
Speaker 2: and so many parents are facing burnout as well today

30
00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:33,280
Speaker 2: that how do you help your children when you're not

31
00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:36,520
Speaker 2: capable yourself. But in the old days, in the old days,

32
00:01:36,600 --> 00:01:39,520
Speaker 2: just of generation ago, about maybe ten years ago, you

33
00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,840
Speaker 2: knew the influences that were bearing down on your own children.

34
00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:47,360
Speaker 2: Now you don't. Now it's all hidden within a screen,

35
00:01:47,720 --> 00:01:51,240
Speaker 2: so you don't know the images they're getting about toxic masculinity,

36
00:01:51,320 --> 00:01:54,800
Speaker 2: about body image, about influences and all that kind of stuff.

37
00:01:54,840 --> 00:01:57,400
Speaker 2: And I guess this is equipping parents as to how

38
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,360
Speaker 2: to keep up to date with what their kids are

39
00:01:59,400 --> 00:01:59,840
Speaker 2: looking at.

40
00:02:00,120 --> 00:02:03,280
Speaker 1: Yes, there used to be influences, Now there are influencers.

41
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:04,160
Speaker 4: Church.

42
00:02:04,440 --> 00:02:05,200
Speaker 2: Yeah, if you're with.

43
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: Me now, the way this is done, do you think

44
00:02:10,480 --> 00:02:13,239
Speaker 1: that'll help the message get through better? I think it

45
00:02:13,320 --> 00:02:16,160
Speaker 1: sounds like a It's such an intriguing way to do

46
00:02:16,320 --> 00:02:18,799
Speaker 1: things with the zil play.

47
00:02:19,120 --> 00:02:21,160
Speaker 2: Because there are a lot of parenting shows around, and

48
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,239
Speaker 2: so the information on its own is interesting because this

49
00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:28,880
Speaker 2: is the very latest in technology, in psychology, in neuroscience,

50
00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,400
Speaker 2: were you know, all the best parenting gurus. This is

51
00:02:32,440 --> 00:02:35,919
Speaker 2: the very latest information on how best to navigate this stuff.

52
00:02:36,280 --> 00:02:39,480
Speaker 2: But I think as well as that it's an intriguing

53
00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:41,640
Speaker 2: show to watch because of the concept. So even if

54
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,440
Speaker 2: you're not a parent or your children aren't in the

55
00:02:43,520 --> 00:02:47,519
Speaker 2: drop zone where this is of vital importance to you,

56
00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:49,440
Speaker 2: I think there's enough going on in the show that

57
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:51,880
Speaker 2: you'll be entertained and informed as well.

58
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,760
Speaker 3: You're right a matter. It's so complex now, isn't it.

59
00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:57,240
Speaker 3: When you think about the you know, the social media world,

60
00:02:57,280 --> 00:03:00,160
Speaker 3: you've got bullying and influences and that can have so

61
00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,200
Speaker 3: much impact and so much power over young minds.

62
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:05,519
Speaker 2: This is falling at home.

63
00:03:05,919 --> 00:03:09,240
Speaker 1: That's that's what's different when I was a kid home.

64
00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:14,000
Speaker 2: But it is even things like gambling. You know, young

65
00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,880
Speaker 2: young men in particular, young boys are being exposed to

66
00:03:16,960 --> 00:03:18,679
Speaker 2: all of this stuff. And on the other hand, a

67
00:03:18,720 --> 00:03:23,000
Speaker 2: lot of kids are making careers out of being online gamblers.

68
00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:25,520
Speaker 2: And if your child was or an online gamer, if

69
00:03:25,560 --> 00:03:28,280
Speaker 2: your child was given opportunity to earn a living out

70
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 2: of it, would you let them? So there's a lot

71
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,680
Speaker 2: of complex stuff or not. Not all technology is bad,

72
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:34,880
Speaker 2: but how do you navigate it?

73
00:03:35,600 --> 00:03:40,040
Speaker 1: You've got Maggie Dent on hand to provide some guidance. Now,

74
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 1: what Maggie beer is to ice cream, Maggie Dent is

75
00:03:47,800 --> 00:03:50,360
Speaker 1: really I think it rarely has some gravitas, doesn't it?

76
00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:52,520
Speaker 2: Oh, it really does. I don't know if I'd have

77
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:54,880
Speaker 2: a roast that Maggie Dent had made. Having said that

78
00:03:55,400 --> 00:04:00,520
Speaker 2: she is the parenting guru, she's also full of sense.

79
00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:03,960
Speaker 2: And the overriding message of all this is that kids

80
00:04:04,040 --> 00:04:06,400
Speaker 2: are great and want to learn and want to be

81
00:04:06,560 --> 00:04:09,920
Speaker 2: great parts of the world. So we have optimism in

82
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,200
Speaker 2: the future. Let's just help navigate through this stuff.

83
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,039
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, Well you never stop worrying about them. That's

84
00:04:16,080 --> 00:04:16,560
Speaker 4: the thing of matter.

85
00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 3: I know you get this, and we have got a

86
00:04:18,040 --> 00:04:19,600
Speaker 3: twenty four to twenty seven year old, but there's not

87
00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,280
Speaker 3: a day where there's not some kind of concern, not

88
00:04:22,440 --> 00:04:24,040
Speaker 3: the same concerns as when they're four and seven.

89
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:27,400
Speaker 2: No, and that's true, but you're quite right, it never

90
00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:29,600
Speaker 2: ever stops. Just when you think you're through the worst

91
00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:31,960
Speaker 2: of it, something else happens, And part of the role

92
00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:33,840
Speaker 2: now is for us to learn when we step in

93
00:04:33,920 --> 00:04:35,640
Speaker 2: and when we don't. And I'm not particularly good at

94
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:37,400
Speaker 2: navigating that. Well.

95
00:04:37,480 --> 00:04:39,919
Speaker 1: I'm fascinated at this series. I'm not even a parent,

96
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:43,000
Speaker 1: but I'm kind of tuning because it sounds really, really interesting,

97
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:45,720
Speaker 1: So I think it's fun for no parent to miss.

98
00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:48,680
Speaker 1: It starts at eight thirty tomorrow on the ABC and

99
00:04:48,800 --> 00:04:53,760
