What the Parenting Books Get Wrong with Dr. Joel Gator

In today's episode of The Gentle Parenting show, Kim is joined by Dr. Joel "Gator" Warsh. He is a board-certified pediatrician in Los Angeles who specializes in parenting, wellness, and integrative medicine. Dr. Gator also hosts his own podcast, Raising Amazing. Today, Kim and Dr. Gator talk about what the parenting books get wrong and how to focus on preventive health for kids. They focus on:

• Prevention vs. Treatment 
• The SEEDS of Preventative Health
• Preventative Mental Health Measures
• Balancing parenting advise 

Our favorite quotes for the episode include: "We should be spending just as much time, if not more time, talking about how we prevent disease and build a good foundation of health." and "There is no one size fits all for anything in parenting."
