On a Child's Potential

from A Fistful of Fodder · host Marvin Sanchez

Episode Preview:Being a dad to a 2-year-old has me constantly thinking about potential—not just hers, but what it really means to raise a child in today’s world. In this episode, I reflect on how every parenting decision, even simple ones like which language to speak at home, can open one path while quietly closing another. I explore how children’s imaginations—like my daughter wanting to be a princess—might reflect something far deeper than fantasy: a desire for boundless possibility. What if raising a child isn’t just about preparing them for the world, but about preparing the world to be reshaped by them?
