Ben and his parents are at loggerheads over his decision to drop out of university to work full-time on his gaming channel.

Twenty-one-year-old Ben is at loggerheads with his parents. He wants to drop out of university to work full-time on his online gaming channel. Parents John and Meryl worry he is rushing into a decision, while Ben just wants them to have confidence in his career choice and give him their blessing.

Bear and his team set the family a blindfolded navigation task to see how they communicate under pressure, and a map-reading challenge where John and Meryl must trust Ben’s decision-making. In a campfire chat, mediator Mo tries to help the family understand each others’ perspectives.

Can John and Meryl learn to let go and trust their son? And will Ben gain confidence in himself and find a way to reassure his parents? Either way, Ben has a tough decision to make.
