Care and Feeding | Slate's parenting show - Actually Helpful Parenting Advice

from Slate Daily Feed

On this episode: Lucy Lopez, Elizabeth Newcamp, and Zak Rosen are digging into parenting styles. The new book on the block is Lighthouse Parenting: Raising Your Child With Loving Guidance for a LIfelong Bond, out in March. And it got us thinking: are all these different parenting styles - Tiger Mom, Gentle Parenting, Free Range, etc - kinda trash? They dig into their styles, how to make different styles work for you, and more.Then, while Lucy and Zak don’t LOVE to read parenting books, they all share books that they actually got something out of. Mentioned in the Show:Want to Raise Resilient Kids?
