    Is 'Gentle Parenting' Ruining French Children?

    “Traditional” French parenting is built on a foundation of firm boundaries, strictness and punishment for misbehavior. Within these rules, children are also allowed freedom and autonomy, which some say results in both well-behaved children and stress-free parents. In recent years, though, American-style “gentle” or “positive” parenting has gained a toehold in the country, unsettling decades of orthodoxy about the best way to raise a French child. It has prompted a fierce debate, with both sides accusing the other of being harmful. In today’s episode, Madeleine Schwartz, a journalist who lives in Paris, talks with Michael Barbaro about the dispute over parenting styles in France and what it says about the eternal search for the “right” way to raise children. On Today’s Episode: Madeleine Schwartz is a journalist and editor in Paris. Background Reading: Did American-Style ‘Gentle Parenting’ Spoil French Children?

    Is America’s Drinking Water the Next Front in the Iran War?

    Over the past week, a growing number of municipalities across the United States have reported that their water systems were hacked. The Times has found that the attacks were most likely perpetrated by Iran. Today, Dustin Volz, a cybersecurity and intelligence correspondent for The New York Times, explains how the hacking exposes yearslong failed efforts to shore up vulnerabilities in U.S. infrastructure, and how Iran may be seeking a new kind of leverage that could extend the war’s reach to within U.S. borders and affect something as elemental as the water we drink. Guest: Dustin Volz, a cybersecurity and intelligence correspondent for The New York Times. Background reading:  Federal and state officials are racing to address an assault on the nation’s water supply. Cyberattacks on water systems nationwide that affected Michigan and Minnesota also included at least five more states. Evidence points to Iranian involvement.

    The Cyclospora Mystery: How Human Poop Got on So Much Lettuce

    U.S. health officials linked six more states to what’s now the largest outbreak of cyclospora in American history — an outbreak that has contributed to at least two deaths, sickened thousands of people and left the rest of us increasingly scared of salad. Today, Christina Jewett and Caroline Hopkins Legaspi, two public health reporters who have covered the parasite for The New York Times, discuss what’s been learned about where it comes from, how it spread so quickly and why our food safety system seems to be powerless to stop it. Guest:  Christina Jewett, covers the Food and Drug Administration for The New York Times. Caroline Hopkins Legaspi, a health reporter focusing on nutrition and sleep for The New York Times. Background reading:  Taco Bell and the food distributor Sysco have pulled Taylor Farms lettuce from supply chains after it was linked to cyclosporiasis. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has linked six more states to the cyclospora outbreak associated with iceberg lettuce. Photo: Michelle V.

    After Losing Her Limbs, Our Cooking Columnist Returns to the Kitchen

    For decades, the kitchen was the centerpiece of Yewande Komolafe’s life. She spent long hours there, first as a restaurant cook and later as a recipe developer. But though she loved the often-intense culinary world, she had to navigate it with certain limitations: She was born with sickle cell disease, an inherited blood disorder, which required her to carefully manage her working life. She did so successfully, becoming a celebrated cookbook author and food writer for The Times. A medical crisis in December 2023 changed all of that. Komolafe ended up in a coma for six weeks, and after emerging learned that both her legs and her fingers would need to be amputated. In this episode of “The Sunday Daily,” Komolafe tells Rachel Abrams about what happened and how, after everything, she made her way back into the kitchen. On Today’s Episode: Yewande Komolafe is a cooking columnist for The New York Times.

    The Fight Tearing Apart Silicon Valley

    For years, a debate has been simmering in Silicon Valley over the right way to build artificial intelligence. Should it be open and free for anyone to use, or should we tightly control how it’s made and who can access it? Mike Isaac, who covers technology for The New York Times, explains why the release of two Chinese models pushed that debate to a boiling point this week, and how it could end up reshaping the future of A.I. Guest: Mike Isaac, a New York Times reporter based in the San Francisco Bay Area, covering tech companies and Silicon Valley.
