Paul's Takeaways

At 1:40:53 · chapter starts 1:39:49

Paul wraps the episode with his personal takeaways. He recalls his sons mentioning teen gatherings in South London and making a firm decision that they would not attend — and wondering whether the friends who did had the same kind of conversation with their parents. He reflects on his own family background with corporal punishment, the influence of Jamaican and South Carolinian heritage, and how the context of fear drove those practices. He closes with a call to action: Jo Frost should be granted a meeting with the Prime Minister, and the UK should establish a Ministry for Children and Families. He believes there is a groundswell of public support behind that petition, and ends the episode by declaring that every time he is in LA, Jo Frost must come back to the show.
