Dylan Dreyer sits down with TODAY Show colleague and chief consumer correspondent Vicky Nguyen — two working moms raising three kids who grew up in very different worlds but landed in the same place as parents. Vicky, who came to the US as a refugee from Vietnam at age two, opens up about the strict, authoritarian upbringing she's deliberately doing differently while also finding ways to bring a little of that grit back into her daughters' lives. They talk about keeping communication open with teenagers, why Vicky deliberately keeps friction in her kids' lives to build resilience, and the social media battle with her 16-year-old.
