A neighbour of a man fatally shot in East Auckland yesterday is terrified that the killer is still at large. Amanda Craig spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.
This week: Keir Starmer's plan to soften Brexit Katy Balls writes this week's cover piece on Labour's plans to establish close ties with the EU. Every member of Starmer's cabinet voted Remain, and the government is trying to ‘reset EU relations through a charm offensive'. Brussels figures are hopeful: ‘There was no real goodwill for the Conservative government.' There are tests coming: the first deal, Katy writes, could be harmonisation on veterinary standards. But will the UK have to abide by the European Court of Justice? Then there's the issue of Chinese electric cars: will Starmer accept cheap imports, or follow the EU in raising tariffs on them? For now, EU officials see the new PM as ‘workman-like and not playing to the gallery'. How long will that last? Katy Balls is joined by Anand Menon, director of the think tank UK in a changing Europe. (02:03) Then: In The Spectator this week Jonathan Miller writes about his experiences at the Hampshire public school Bedales. The school's alumni roster is impressive: royalty, celebrity, and several Spectator writers. But it has also courted controversy and criticism from some previous students. The novelist and writer Amanda Craig was one such former student, so highly critical of the school she authored a book ‘A Private Place' detailing her experiences. Jonathan and Amanda join the podcast to discuss the cult of Bedales. (19:22) And finally: is there really reason to believe aliens exist? In the magazine this week, the astronomer and science writer Dr David Whitehouse says if aliens do exist, why can nobody find any proof of them. Despite the evidence, or lack thereof, why does the belief in aliens endure? And how much can we really read into the disclosures in the US about UAPs - Unidentified Aerial Platforms? David joins the podcast to discuss his article alongside space journalist Jonathan O'Callaghan. (31:24) Hosted by Gus Carter and Lara Prendergast. Produced by Patrick Gibbons and Oscar Edmondson.

The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)
Dr. Amanda Craig is a licensed marriage and family therapist, author, speaker, wife, and mother. She is known for her work in individual, couples, and family therapy, as well as for authoring the book "Who Are You and What Have You Done with My Kid?" which focuses on parenting tweens. Dr. Amanda Craig's practice emphasizes building strong, emotionally connected families. Dr. Craig's interest in psychology began during her college years, when she took psychology classes. She admits that she struggled as a student and didn't find her passion until she discovered psychology. The subject matter energized and excited her, sparking a deep curiosity about human behavior and emotions. This newfound passion led her to seek therapy herself, further solidifying her interest in the field. One particular aspect of psychology that captivated Dr. Amanda Craig was the study of relationships. She recalls taking a family systems course during her master's program, which emphasized the significance of relationships for people's wellbeing. This realization resonated with her, and she became convinced of the importance of understanding the dynamics between individuals and the impact it has on their lives. www.thedadedge.com/friday141 www.amandacraigphd.com www.amandacraigphd.com/new-book @amandacraigphd
Sitting down with Georgina Godwin this week is the hugely acclaimed novelist, short-story writer and critic Amanda Craig. She returns to the show with her latest novel, ‘The Three Graces'. Set in contemporary Tuscany, the book examines the current state of Europe and explores difficult themes such as migration, racial discrimination and ageing. Craig opens up about her first experience of being published, navigating the “chick lit” genre and how Victorian literature inspired the array of more than 100 characters who appear – and often reappear – in her books.

Today on the Dads with Daughters Podcast, we bring you mother, author and therapist, Dr. Amanda Craig. In her twenty-plus years as a family therapist, Amanda Craig, Ph.D., LMFT has worked in a variety of settings including research departments, juvenile correction facilities, high schools, Fortune 500 companies, substance abuse programs, and/or university/college classrooms. Today, we talk about parenting tweens and teens and what you can do to make strong connections during these changing years. Ah, the tween years. This uncertain time in a child's development has many parents realizing that they need to double down on academic focus and watch their children more carefully as they gain more trust and are exposed to more of the world through social pursuits and their peers. What is a parent to do though when they are feeling so much pressure to watch their kids, but also want them to gain the confidence they need to move through the world successfully in their teen years and beyond? Enter Amanda Craig, A family therapist who has seen and experienced much of this in her practice, and has legitimately written the book, Who are you and what have you done with my kid? Her advice is to stop trying to parent and seize the opportunity to connect with your child instead, while they're still listening and trusting you. When as parents, we worry about our children, we're creating separation and disconnection with them instead of fostering the connection that's already been built up to now. There is a neurological explosion that is taking place before us as tweens experience four significant changes that shake them (and us) to the core. As parents, we've already been through it so there's no visceral reference for what's happening, only distant memories. For the tweens, this is all brand new and very visceral. Their brains are changing. They feel and experience emotions they do not recognize. They're hyperaware of themselves. They do not know how to express themselves. Parents still have a “seat at the table” to make positive impressions on their tweens as they prepare them for the teenage years.

If you want to set yourself (and your kids!) up for a successful relationship as they enter their teen years, it starts with deep connection with tweens! Research shows that kids between the ages of 9 and 12 are starting to think for themselves, but they still listen to what mom and dad have to say. That makes tweens the perfect age for building deep connections that will last them into and beyond their teenage years! This conversation with Dr. Amanda Craig, author of the book, Who Are You and What Have You Done with My Kid? Connect with your Tween While They're Still Listening was a fascinating look at the four pillars of connection. Even as they parent older kids, Dr. Amy and Teri were able to glean some great ideas for deepening connection, from creating daily and nightly rituals, to owning our mistakes and being vulnerable in our relationships with our kids. Dr. Craig's four pillars are instinctual, but so incredibly helpful in framing our approach to parenting. ABOUT DR.

I first encountered Amanda when she was children's book critic for The Times, and was a judge on the Times/Chicken House competition that won me my first book contract, for Threads. As a journalist and reviewer she has been a huge champion of what she calls the third golden age of children's literature, spotting Harry Potter, His Dark Materials and The Hunger Games in their early days. As she is also the author of nine novels, I was keen to find out about her own writing process. We also discuss the hard truths about sustaining yourself as a novelist, the importance – as always – of libraries, and what is it that makes a busy book reviewer sit up and take notice of a new fiction title. We recorded this episode in May 2021. I hope you enjoy our conversation.

The stereotypical view of a gamer is a socially-isolated teenager who could be doing something better with their time. Liz Vickers is a 74 year old gamer from Manby, Lincolnshire, and so is her good friend, Bridget Odlin, aged 75, from Louth, Lincolnshire. They’ve been playing together, and separately, for almost more than 20 years. Lotta Haegg, an avid gamer herself, speaks to them. A new government report in Ireland shows that 6666 women accessed abortions there in 2019. This is the first annual report to be published since medical abortion became legal in Ireland up to twelve weeks of pregnancy. This followed the result of the May 2018 referendum on the Eighth Amendment of the Constitution. What do the figures tell us about abortion care in Ireland now? Jenni speaks to Ellen Coyne, a journalist at the Irish Independent newspaper and Dr Trish Horgan, a GP in Cork City and member of START - Southern Taskgroup on Abortion and Reproductive Topics. The novelist Amanda Craig joins Jenni to discuss her ninth novel - 'The Golden Rule'; inspired by both Patricia Highsmith’s classic, 'Strangers on a Train', and the fairy-tale, 'Beauty and the Beast'. Leading women in theatre have sent an open letter to Oliver Dowden, the secretary of state for digital, culture, media and sport. They are asking the task force, responsible for cultural renewal following the coronavirus pandemic, to develop their plans using a “gender lens” to ensure gender equality is considered and ensured. Maureen Beattie OBE, president of equity and Jennifer Tuckett, director of university women in the arts and literary director of Sphinx Theatre, discuss their concerns that gender inequality will increase in straitened, risk-averse conditions.

Small Pleasures is both gripping and a huge delight' Amanda Craig, author of The Lie of the Land 'The glorious literary equivalent of pulling the duvet over your head... If you admire Tessa Hadley or Anne Tyler (and there are shades of Barbara Pym too), then this is one for you' Bookseller, Book of the Month 1957, south-east suburbs of London. Jean Swinney is a feature writer on a local paper, disappointed in love and - on the brink of forty - living a limited existence with her truculent mother: a small life from which there is no likelihood of escape. When a young Swiss woman, Gretchen Tilbury, contacts the paper to claim that her daughter is the result of a virgin birth, it is down to Jean to discover whether she is a miracle or a fraud. But the more Jean investigates, the more her life becomes strangely (and not unpleasantly) intertwined with that of the Tilburys: Gretchen is now a friend, and her quirky and charming daughter Margaret a sort of surrogate child. And Jean doesn't mean to fall in love with Gretchen's husband, Howard, but Howard surprises her with his dry wit, his intelligence and his kindness - and when she does fall, she falls hard. But he is married, and to her friend - who is also the subject of the story she is researching for the newspaper, a story that increasingly seems to be causing dark ripples across all their lives. And yet Jean cannot bring herself to discard the chance of finally having a taste of happiness. But there will be a price to pay - and it will be unbearable.
