Private Medical New York-based pediatrician Dr. Kelly Fradin is joined by Melinda Wenner Moyer, contributing editor at Scientific American, and a faculty member in the Science, Health & Environmental Reporting program at NYU’s Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute. Her recent book, How to Raise Kids Who Aren’t Assholes, takes a scientific approach to bringing up kids who are compassionate, confident, and resilient. They discuss how lying is a normal part of development, how kids’ self-esteem contributes to a long, healthy life, and the importance of discussing topics that make you uncomfortable.
