Humans Being

In this episode: Sarah talks about social and media influences- deprogramming ourselves to see the empowered decisionmakers in our children.

I’ve been busy!

Who are ‘they’?
Researchers? Other parents?

Studies regarding social influences on children are not studying free children
Most children in our society are oppressed, judged, otherwise altered by the motives of others.
How can these studies apply to our children?

Undesirable messages

Good vs. bad in life- smoking, alcohol, tattoos, clothing choices… What are the issues that bug you?

Free children demonstrate their individuality in their relative disinterest in the choices of others.
We talk about personal choice and evidence- they make their own personal choice

Sex, drugs, language

Video games- violence primarily is the issue
In talks with my kids- ‘we know it’s not real!’
Listen to them- they know
Role playing- pretend- fun, playing out scenarios not experienced in real life

Music- sex, language, violence

TV/movies- Watch with them! Talk about it.

Tune in to your kids.
Music selections:  Who Are They?- Buck O Nine / Anyway- O.A.R.
