Coming of Age | The Passage to Adulthood
Tuesday, 19 November, 2024
Rites of passage have been common to many cultures, yet the lines between child and adult tend to become blurred in the modern world under the broad moniker, “teenager.” Mark and I wanted something more distinct for our children, a way to mark their years of progression from child to adult. Gathering ideas from the Jewish tradition of bar/bat mitzvahs, we’ve marked these years with a coming-of-age event at age 13, encouraging our children into adulthood in intentional ways. We discuss some of those ideas and experiences in this episode. We have loved the young adult years with our children! They have been fruitful, even when they are challenging. We hope this encourages you in how you think about these years in your own family. For those who desire to host a coming-of-age event, Mark created a more specific guide for his Viceroy community that complements this episode. It covers more details to help with your planning.
