The Bespoke Parenting Podcast

On this week's Bespoke Parenting Hour, Julie Gunlock talks to IWF legal fellow Erin Hawley about her frightening experience dealing with protestors outside her home, how the police and her neighbors and community reacted, and why politics has become so uncivil in recent years.

The Bespoke Parenting Hour is a podcast about and for parents who are tired of being told how to do it. There’s no one way to parent--there are as many ways as there are kids. Parenting styles, strategies and philosophies should be bespoke--tailor made to fit you, your family, and most importantly, your kids!. Twice a month, Bespoke host Julie Gunlock is joined by a variety of guests who are parenting the way they see fit.

On this week’s Bespoke Parenting Hour, host Julie Gunlock talks to writer and education advocate Erika Sanzi, whe serves as the chief editor at Project Forever Free--an online platform for education activists. Julie and Erika (both moms of three school-aged boys) talk about what Erika calls "the boy crisis in American schools" and the very grim statistics that show boys are falling behind both in school and life. In addition, they discuss why it's become acceptable (even fashionable) in American culture to disparage boys and men and why terms like "the future is female '' and "girls rule" creates an unhelpful (and weird!) "us against them" way of thinking that harms both sexes and creates unnecessary hostility. Julie and Erika also discuss what Erika says is the "narrative that boys are inherently bad or broken" and the media-driven generalizations about boys and men, which suggest they are "unworthy, expendable and deserving of scorn ... just for being male." Tune in!

On this week’s Bespoke Parenting Hour, host Julie Gunlock talks to writer (and coolest aunt on the planet!) Melanie Notkin, an expert on the emerging demographic of childless, often single women, which she wrote about in her memoir, Otherhood: Modern Women Finding a New Kind of Happiness.

Notkin and Julie discuss a wide range of issues—from David Brooks' essay on the nuclear family, the important role non-parents have in children's lives to the many myths and assumptions the public has about childless women, and why the more inclusive and understanding parents are of non-parents, the happier parents and children are overall! In addition, Notkin offers parents some good tips on how to honor the extended family members in their lives. Tune in!

American Enterprise Institute Scholar and IWF Senior Fellow Naoimi Schaeffer Riley's book "Be the Parent: Stop Banning Seesaws and Start Banning Snapchat" addresses the need for better parental control over screens and screen time. Yet, how do we do that in the age of COVID-19 when kids are getting mixed messages on screen time. How can you be an authority when school authorities are telling kids that there are virtually no limits to screen time?
