Hunt Gather Parent Episode 1

We're starting a new book for March and April: Hunt, Gather, Parent by Michaeleen Doucleff, Ph.D.  To write this book, the author lived with Mayan families in Mexico, Inuit families from above the Arctic Circle, and Hadzabe families in Tanzania. From these families, she learned a universal way of parenting that produces kind, generous, helpful children. She documents how she used the techniques she learned with her own young daughter, completely transforming their parent-child relationship. Today we're discussing the prologue and chapter one. We cover what led Dr. Doucleff to write this book, the helpful children she observed in a Mayan village, how traditional western parenting styles are failing our children (and are not the norm), and the impact of the Catholic church on the modern nuclear family here in the United States. As a bonus, we start this episode with a long discussion about ASHA's recent update on the 2025 dues increase.
