This week, Frank asks a simple question: Would our kids survive growing up the way we did? From playing outside until the streetlights came on to learning lessons the old-school way, we look back at how different childhood was compared to today. Enza believes boys definitely had it easier than girls growing up. Were daughters treated more strictly than sons? And have parents become too protective, or are we simply raising kids differently because times have changed? Then comes the surprise of the episode... after all these years, we discover Marcus isn't just Italian. He's actually one-third of something else... and you'll have to listen to find out! Do you think kids today have it easier, or were we tougher because of how we were raised?
