74: Scared Straight-ish

What this episode covers

Here's the reading for the day: Most Parenting Advice Is Worthless, So Here's Some Parenting Advice." Here's a good book on minimalist parenting called "Minimalist Parenting". So, take it easy and learn to play craps with your kid. Jon recently enjoyed some quality time with his daughter playing the Lego Movie game. The parents in this YouTube video are not spending quality time with their daughters. It's like Scared Straight but much more horrible. Lex's daughter is a fan of the Hopscotch app. Jon reminisces about Parenthood and both he and Lex say "NO!" to Bratz. Back to the Future has a surprising amount of swearing and sexual assault.
