In this book, Wendy Mogel applies traditional Jewish teachings to modern parenting. She addresses the challenges faced by middle-class children in today's society and provides practical advice on how to raise children who are resilient and self-reliant. The book emphasizes the importance of balancing parental involvement with the need for children to develop independence and responsibility. Mogel draws from her experience as a clinical psychologist and her studies of the Torah and Talmud to offer a unique and effective approach to child-rearing.
In the second edition of 'Free-Range Kids', Lenore Skenazy provides a compelling and entertaining look at how modern culture fosters excessive worry about children's safety. Using real-world examples, advice, and humor, Skenazy argues that parents and educators can step back to allow children to develop independence. The book includes strategies for rejecting media-driven fear, giving students more independence in schools, and navigating a culture filled with warnings and fears. It also features 'real-world' free-range parent experiences, exercises for parents, and a critique of urban myths about safety risks.
[Rerun] Dr. Kirk Honda and Rebecca Bloom talk about helicopter parenting.
