How much work is too much work for a mother of young children? Who should be the trusted caregiver for a child whose mother has to work? What should single mothers do? Today I sit down with Erica Komisar, psychoanalyst and parent coach, to discuss the importance of mothers “Being There” for their young children, as her groundbreaking book suggests.

We also discuss the research behind outcomes for kids in daycare, aloparenting, practical advice for single moms, what type of schooling is ideal for children, and much more.
