Description

Three TV channels that went off the air at midnight. No VCR. One phone line shared between five people. If you grew up in the 1970s, you survived a childhood that would genuinely get parents arrested today — and psychology says it left you with something most people can't access anymore. In this video I break down the real science behind it: why you're calmer in a crisis, why silence doesn't rattle you, why waiting never bothered you, and why total independence at eight years old shaped your brain in ways that still show up today. I'm George, and this is George Knows Why — breaking down the psychology behind why we do what we do. 🔔 Subscribe for more deep dives every week. #Psychology #70sKid #Nostalgia #Mindset #GenX #PsychologyFacts #GeorgeKnowsWhy #PersonalGrowth #ThrowbackChildhood
