    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!

Then, we’ll explore a question from the Social Justice Parenting Playbook you can use when you feel a power struggle starting. This question is there to help you decide your next parenting steps. We’ll revisit concepts like adult supremacy and reciprocity in child development science too. --------------------------- Get full show notes and more information at: comebacktocare.com/podcast For more BTS of this podcast, follow @comebacktocare on Instagram!

    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!

    Preparing Our Kids to “Sit With Discomfort”

    In this episode, you and I are going to explore how we teach children to tolerate stress and sit with discomfort (and one thing our culture misses about how to do this). Then, you’re going to reflect on your patterns when you witness your child struggling. Once you know your pattern, we’ll unpack one action that you can experiment with today. You’ll also hear an excerpt from the book Raising Change Agents: Practicing Social Justice in Everyday Parenting too. --------------------------- Get full show notes and more information at: comebacktocare.com/podcast For more BTS of this podcast, follow @comebacktocare on Instagram!

    Preparing Our Kids to Meet this Moment

    In this episode, I’d love to invite you to change care to be radical by changing how we look at our children and therefore changing the way we raise them. You and I are going to explore what it takes for our children to survive and thrive. Then we’ll explore what it means to raise them to become change agents- not just quote unquote successful, or kind, or compassionate, or conscious? And lastly, how are we going to go beyond protecting our children by shielding them from reality to effectively preparing them for this reality? --------------------------- Get full show notes and more information at: comebacktocare.com/podcast For more BTS of this podcast, follow @comebacktocare on Instagram!
