Relatable With Allie Stuckey

In this episode, Allie explores the exploding social media trend of going "no contact" with family members, where Gen Z and Millennials are cutting off parents and siblings at record rates in the name of mental health, boundaries, and self-protection. From TikTok testimonials and celebrity examples to the influence of therapy culture and books like "Adult Children of Emotionally Immature Parents," Allie examines how social media, broadened definitions of trauma, and the rise of "chosen family" have normalized family estrangement. She contrasts this with a biblical view that calls Christians to honor parents, pursue reconciliation where possible, practice forgiveness, and recognize the unique value of biological family — even when imperfect. Allie discusses when no contact may be warranted versus when it is driven by selfishness, echo chambers, and a cultural idolization of personal comfort over commitment. Watch now for a thoughtful, faith-based perspective on this growing phenomenon. Share the Arrows
