Today, we’re talking to the award-winning journalist – and newly published author! – Melinda Wenner Moyer. Melinda is the mother of two kids, a parenting journalist, and the author of How to Raise Kids Who Aren't Assholes: Science-based Strategies for Better Parenting – From Tots to Teens. Today we talk about the clear and actionable strategies for raising generous, kind, helpful, honest, independent, and resilient kids which is something on the forefront of our minds right now heading into Thanksgiving and the holidays. We talk about kindness, lying and swearing, screentime, self-esteem and the important practical stuff we can do to help shape our kids into kind and resilient people that are built to change this world for the better!
