Teen Wisdom: Hannah's Take on Life at 18
I think that government should be there to protect rights, not to, not to limit rights, like protecting your right to make choices about your body, right.
Ever wondered how an 18-year-old views the world today? In this episode of 'Discovering Our Scars', hosts Stephanie Kostopoulos and Beth Demme sit down with Beth's daughter, Hannah, who just graduated from high school. The conversation is a delightful mix of humor and deep reflection as Steph and Beth throw a series of not-so-rapid-fire questions at Hannah about her take on life, politics, relationships, and mental health. Hannah's perspective on government and personal rights is particularly eye-opening.
She believes that the government's role should be to protect individual freedoms rather than limit them, especially when it comes to personal choices about one's own body. Her views spark a thoughtful discussion on the balance between safety and freedom. When it comes to relationships, Hannah shares her thoughts on marriage and living with a partner before tying the knot. She sees no issue with it as long as the relationship is based on love and mutual consent.
The conversation even touches on polyamorous relationships, with Hannah offering her open-minded take on the subject. Faith and spirituality also come up, with Hannah discussing her experiences with church and how different people express their faith in unique ways. She talks about the Ten Commandments as a guide for living a good life, rather than strict rules to follow. Mental health and self-care are crucial topics for Hannah, who emphasizes the importance of prioritizing mental well-being.
Her insights remind us all that taking care of our minds is just as important as taking care of our bodies.
