Abstract
Kinderculture, as a youth subcultural form, reflects young people’s unique phenomenological perspectives of how they experience society. It represents the landscape wherein young people engage in a persistent discourse with the hegemonic dominant culture and with the subordinated cultures of their parents as they construct, disseminate, and perform their subcultural forms. They provide an essential counternarrative that critically challenges the rhetoric of cultural normativity imbued in the generational culture of their parents that permeates our hegemonic society.
