    Raising Kids to Be “Good” VS. Raising Kids to “Make Good Trouble”

    And I want to make this episode so you and I can have a real talk about how we can make social justice in parenting a practice that is strategic, satiating, and sustaining. So that you don’t have to feel empty or performative. So that we can keep abolishing policing in our heads, in our homes, and in our neighborhoods together, one interaction at a time. That’s why in this episode, you and I are going to discuss the limitation of this idea of raising kids to be good and explore an alternative which is raising kids to “make good trouble” per John Lewis. --------------------------- Get full show notes and more information at: comebacktocare.com/podcast For more BTS of this podcast, follow @comebacktocare on Instagram!

    Power Struggles Pt. II Dissent Builds Discernment

    This episode is part two of the previous episode. If you haven’t listened to it, I highly recommend you first check out Ep 79: Power Struggles? Fight For What’s Right, Not Who’s Right. In this episode, you and I are going to explore one idea from child development science and practice one strategy that you can experiment with to meet your child in power struggles without giving up your power and letting your change agents run the household or powering over them and imposing your will over theirs. Let’s use your child’s dissent as a radical care moment to build your child’s discernment muscles. --------------------------- Get full show notes and more information at: comebacktocare.com/podcast For more BTS of this podcast, follow @comebacktocare on Instagram!

    In this episode, you and I are going to understand power struggle as a tension between what we want our kids to know to survive and what they need to thrive.

    Our Family Went to the Rally. Now What?

    To help us get organized and strategic, in this episode, you and I are going to explore how movements in the past won -- from the American Civil Rights movement to global nonviolence movements. Then, we’re going to use abolitionist organizing as a framework to help us sustain the spark and organize our advocacy. We’re going to be strategic about how to practice these skills too (hint: we practice them in everyday parenting to strengthen our social justice action muscles and our children’s development at the same time). --------------------------- Get full show notes and more information at: comebacktocare.com/podcast For more BTS of this podcast, follow @comebacktocare on Instagram!
