So Much Learning To Do The Family Skeptical
-
- Parenting
We open the episode talking about going to the American Atheists Convention. It was great. We…are not. Then we dive into important things we learned at the conference and finish up discussing the concept of “You’re doing a good job” from the One Bad Mother podcast.
While the conference was a blast, this episode is about some serious stuff, so just take note depending on how you’re doing and who you’re listening with (i.e. kids).
***If you want to skip the discussion of abuse, go to 23:30 and there’s another minute at the end between 56:30 and 57:30 that you might want to hop over too.
Now so so many links:
Kavin Senapathy was the parenting speaker and her upcoming book is The Progressive Parent: Harnessing the Power of Science and Social Justice to Raise Awesome Kids.
Paul Golin was the other speaker and is executive director of the Society for Humanistic Judaism.
We can’t link to Recovering From Religion enough. Their parenting resources are here.
Definitely check out the American Humanist Association.
Dan Beecher does both the Thank God I’m Atheist and Data Over Dogma podcasts.
Eli Bosnick does all the podcasts including The Scathing Atheist, God Awful Movies, and Dear Old Dads which is one of two podcasts that I listen to immediately on release no matter how many other podcasts I have in my backlog.
This is the Misfit Amish podcast by Mary Byler.
And this is the Plain People’s Podcast by Jasper Hoffman.
This is the episode of The Line’s Sunday Show that we reference. The caller we discuss is Dinah.
Definitely give One Bad Mother a listen.
Read Stefanie Wilder-Taylor's Drunk-ish: A Memoir of Loving and Leaving Alcohol. And finally, since Recovering From Religion is just so cool, I’ll link to them again for their secular recovery resources.
The Family Skeptical: We’re a married atheist couple raising two wonderful, strange children. We ask big questions, dissect weird parenting moments, and examine how society ignores or misrepresents families like ours. If you’re any stripe of non-believer who’s involved in raising children, welcome! You are our people.
Our kids are Reader (10) and Go (7), and if you want to find out how we arrived at these peculiar pseudonyms, go back to Episode 1.
