Sarah Miller (46) survived the 80s with a Walkman, a landline, and zero adult supervision—and she’s very proud of it. As a Gen-X mom forged by bike rides without helmets and parents who said “be home by dark,” she’s convinced today’s teens are basically bubble-wrapped by Wi-Fi.

Her daughter Maya (17) knows better. She’s grown up online, where every mistake is screenshot forever, every opinion is judged, and privacy is a myth. To Maya, the real danger isn’t the outside world—it’s being permanently documented.

When a shouting match in their ultra-smart kitchen turns nuclear, Sarah snaps that Maya wouldn’t survive a single day in 1986. Maya fires back that Sarah would crumble under the psychological warfare of 2026.

The universe hears them.

Cue a mysterious glitch—part pride, part tech, part analog chaos—and suddenly mother and daughter wake up living each other’s worst nightmare.

Sarah is a teen in 1986.
Maya is a teen in 2026.

No filters. No do-overs. No escape.

Just one impossible question:
 

Who actually has it harder—and what happens when you’re forced to live the answer?
