In this episode I am joined by another Karin, whose special subject areas are IT and the study of parenting over the last 2 centuries. Yes, you read that correctly. Karin has co-authored a book in German entitled “Bei meinem Kind mache ich das anders” which more or less translates to “I do things differently with my child.”

In addition to some fascinating tales of the development of parenting, this talk, spread over 2 episodes also includes some very up-to-date political analysis that covers some of the dangers of right-wing politics to parenting itself and beyond.

Karin’s incise commentary is a painful reminder of the need for vigilance in trying to ensure the ideological depravities of the past do not come back to haunt our children…

Thank you, Karin, for your time.

Enjoy!
