When Age Gaps Become Problematic

Lala is discussing age gaps within relationships, looking at how they manifest in both media portrayals and everyday life, and shedding light on the persistent gender-based double standards that often underpin these narratives. She explains what makes a healthy relationship and why it's crucial for the younger person in an age-gap relationship to have enough life experience, maturity, and readiness for major decisions like becoming a parent.
