Coming Up on the Youth Channel: Nama’stay In Bed

Adulting can seem overwhelming, especially when you’ve been so accustomed to being guided, in school and at home. The thought of even working a job and having to pay for your own things can be devastating. Now you’re reaching an age where you’re asking for socks as a Christmas present. Who are you?! Definitely not the same person who begged for a hoverboard a few years ago, they’re not even a thing anymore. All of this may feel like it’s taking a toll on your mood and make you want to wake up the kid inside. We all go through it. Within time, you will get used to a whole new routine and feel okay. Join the Youth Channel for a week of special programming about identity, food, and starting a career.

The Youth Channel airs programming every weeknight from 6-7pm on MNN 4 (FiOS 36, RCN 85, Spectrum 67 & 1998) and MNN HD (Spectrum 1993). To learn about MNN’s Youth Media Center and the work they produce, click here.
