Latchkey Kids | Christina P Stand Up Comedy | "Mother Inferior" on Netflix

OMG the audience must be only Millenials because they were not laughing as much as I was watching this!!!! You just can't explain growing up as Gen X to the younger generations, they just can't comprehend.

Loved that joke. It's a smart people joke. On the subject of PSAs, my favorite one that goes along with your "least parented" generation was "It's 10 o'clock, do you know where your children are?"

Hi 👖

"I'm a forever puppy," might be my favorite line.

Hey man I was born in 97 and I was a latchkey kid as young as like 10-11

I’m a millennial grew up in the 90s. I walked home from school at 7. Had my own key at 8. Had the place to myself at 12. But then again, I’m an immigrant lol

The guy laughing in the crowd sounds like Bert Kreischer

I always say it’s good I never burnt down the house. My parents never told me to not play with fire. Vienna sausages that’s what I ate. I hate them now

Junior high school?!? I was letting myself in after school when I was in grade 3.

Pay for a louder audience it really will transform the performance

Nah

Yea this is kinda just every generation with alcholic parents.

She is funny. Nuff said

A+ video!
Love the Gen X memories!

this chics prozac is seriously off balance, maa'm you really need to get that RX balanced before you go on full tilt..

Nintendo, Dr pepper,Cheetos, gummy worms raised me keep preaching sister 👍

She use to be cute

I feel sorry for the poor librarians at the local public library. Nothing but me and other bad kids whose parents didn't trust them alone at home.

Keep feathering it Mommy

So funny

Omg thats my childhood in a nutshell, even the white-trash diet. Good memories 😊

Witty, poignant aaaand funny, thanks babe!❤👍😁🙏
Love your work!

Junior High School? I was Latch-Key by 2nd grade.

Nothing wrong with being a latchkey kid. It teaches them independency and responsibility.
Many kids nowadays are unable to make themselves a sandwich.
Dont get me wrong, Im a stay-at-home-mom who cares for her kids, but I also teach them to learn how to care for themselves.
If youre hungy and its not time for dinner, yet... go and make a sandwich. If your parents go grocery shopping... you are old enough to take care of yourself for a couple of hours. If you want something special to eat and we dont have it at home... go to the store and get it so I can fix it for you. One day my 11y old son wanted onins for a special dish. But we were out of them. He went off and got sone, so I could make it for him.
Thats how you teach them real life and responsibility.

When I was 5 and my brother was 10 we were latchkey kids in the early 80's and I distinctly remember flicking matches at gas soaked army men in the yard 😂

She did an angry Bill Burr impression in the end, It's hilarious.

"He grew up with 2 parents.". I knew kids like that.

Omg….. the canned ravioli part killed me.

I ate that stuff in bulk 😅

I was a latchkey kid but it was a school program called latchkey. From 3-5pm. We walked to and from school all year round regardless of weather. We played outside regardless of weather. We had a commercial that ran after 8 that went, It's 9pm do you know your kids are? It was a better time. I remember getting brought home by the cops cuz we got on top of the school shining a pocket laser into people's houses, I was 9.

Is this possibly the only female comic on the planet that talks about something other than genitals and dating?

And we grew up so much happier, better adjusted, and healthier than any generation to this day.

I was a latch key kid. 1970's / 1980's kid. C-section mom. Junk food. but could cook, too. M

junior high? I was in second grade would run home to watch Tiny toons and eat cheese sandwiches.

Hello Nana 😁

Latchkey kid from grade 4 on…when my parents relocated us to NJ from central PA…culture shock…my dad took a job in NYC to make more money…little did he know the cost of living in this God-forsaken money pit, hole state…I still live in said state…ate through his pay increase and required my mother to go back to work .

After school hours RULED!!!! The cartoons rocked. If you had a bike, you had wings and freedom. We played pick up games of baseball, football, dodge ball, kickball, freeze tag for hours on end…or until the street lights came on. We were self sufficient and we looked out for each other. We learned how to be social and the pack policed it’s own if someone was acting like a jackass. Most kids today will never know this phenomenon until they are well into their high school years…I have a friend who is afraid to let her sophomore son and senior daughter home alone…she takes the day off from work on days that they are both home from school🙄.

As for me as a parent…I worked 2 jobs sometimes 3. My wife is a professional as well. We had no choice but to put my son in daycare from the time he was 6 months old until he went to kindergarten. My job gave me summers off, but for the first few years, I worked the summers and still sent my kid to daycare. We started to leave him home alone for short stints when he was in 4th grade. By sixth grade we would leave him home alone for a few hours at night. By 8th grade he was completely adjusted to being home alone.

If one doesn’t have to leave their kid home alone….don’t. But for some of us, it was a necessity and it shaped many of us. Many of today’s kids just don’t have any of the resiliency, grit, self reliance, and ingenuity, that past generations have because their parents have snowplowed, lawnmowed, helicoptered these kids and they are at a disadvantage. These kids suffer from anxiety, social awkwardness far beyond what is normal. They are school phobic and have almost no regard for authority figures. And there is virtually no work ethic at all because they have been given EVERYTHING!!! Yet many can’t function at the most basic levels of common sense. I’ll take the Depression generation and latchkey generation over this one..hands down!!!

Well too many paedos ruined this for future kids.

She looks great for like 50 years old

My parents are fucking crazy

I’d do her.

Born in 1972. I still remember coming home from school at 10 years old with my "key" and cooking eggs for the first time by myself and burned the shit out of everything. No one told me you couldn't cook eggs on an electric stove with the burner on high after preheating the pan for 6 minutes until the pan glowed red!!

Amazing what a few thousand miles does to humer

Hilarious, latchkey kids, so true. I was not allowed to use stove top so only oven allowed. LIVED on tator tots, could eat a whole baking sheet of those things, with a party size bottle of Heinz 57...afternoon cartoons. 80s were a fun time. Learning independence was part of that parental neglect I guess lol Those PSOs were hilarious too, "Take a bite out of my junk.....uhhuh crime" Magruff the pedo pooch🤣🤣

Key kid here, it was absolutely normal. 3rd grade on up, come home to an empty house. I would cook mac and cheese on the stove, watch some cartoons until my parents got home. No one was allowed in the house except for my best friend, Moms knew each other.

You cooked on the stove as a child?! yea, normal, my Ma taught me how on the weekends. She started to let me on my own once she was sure I knew what to do. There was no Microwave.

Edit: PSA's Fire.. this is absolutely true!
Also true: PSA on how to make orange juice popsicles.

So relatable. I grew up in the 70’s but both parents worked so we had a few hours to ourselves. It was our normal. Nobody swooping in at 3:15 PM to chauffeur us to some extracurricular activity or a “play date” 😂

Completely relatable content. I can’t even begin to explain how relatable this is. I was a latchkey trailer park kid. I ate Bean with Bacon soup and Beefaroni.

She knows latchkey kids are apart of every generation, right? She must just be playing up too the morons who think "their" generation is special lol.

This is not funny...

nice jeans mommy

I would worship this gal.

I was born in the 90s and i was a latchkey kid.
