Good, meaty research reveals time and again that kids enter this world being ready to learn, cooperate, and connect - contrary to obsolete, harmful beliefs that still dominate the advice parents get flooded with. If Dr. Spock and the parents he directed were right, why is there so much unhappiness and unkindness in the adult world? This episode explores some game-changing insights, no matter what ages the kids in your life are. It turns out that the solutions are easier than the problems - if we have the courage to be true to ourselves, our kids, and our hearts. As a bonus, Rob throws the clapper board across the room for no sensible reason.
