Guest EMILY FILMORE homeschools and practices attachment parenting. So host Ellie Knaus asks this former lawyer turned conscious parent and published author to explain what Filmore calls "alternative parenting" choices. They talk about the no hugging or tickling policy in schools, what it's like living with an autoimmune disease, and Emily's high risk pregnancy experience. Ellie had her baby sleeping in a crib from day one, while Emily co-slept with her daughter until she was nine! Forget Oscar and Felix, Ellie and Emily have the ultimate odd couple friendship. Please share with your parent-friends. Find us on social media @atomicmoms. Find Emily's books at www.atomicmoms.com
