Description
Lenore Skenazy didn’t think much of the time that she granted her 9-year-old’s request and allowed him to ride the subway alone in NYC. So, following his safe return, this New York columnist wrote up an article about it. But she never could have predicted the media firestorm that this decision set off, which eventually crowned her with the title of “America’s Worst Mom.” But how did our society get to this point? When did parents begin seeing childhood only through the fear-filled lens of “What could go terribly wrong?” Today, Lenore joins Keith to discuss. Listen as she explains how culture forces fear upon both parents and educators and describes the negative effects this has on children. Has the goal of parenting changed? Should we really strive for helicopter parenting, or is there another way? Plus, hear how her nonprofit, Let Grow, seeks to restore independence to children and faith to their parents and teachers. Whether you’re a parent or not, you’ll love hearing from Lenore!
