This week on The Hamilton Review Podcast, we are very happy to welcome author Pam Lobley BACK to the show! Pam's first appearance on The Hamilton Review was episode 211 in May of 2023, and you can check out that conversation HERE. Pam is the author of the book, "Why Can't We Just Play? What I Did When I Realized My Kids Were Way Too Busy."

In this episode, Pam and Dr. Bob pick up where they left off in the last conversation and take a deeper dive into the importance of allowing children to be bored. They also talk about spending time together as a family, looking at what "success" really means, taking extreme pressure off of children and much more. Don't miss the great discussion!

Pam Lobley is a comedic writer of plays, columns and books. Her columns have appeared in many newspapers and websites. Her memoir, Why Can't We Just Play? What I Did When I Realized My Kids Were Way Too Busy, (Familius) details the year she let her overscheduled children take the summer off from their busy activities and “just” play. It is available wherever books are sold.
