In this episode of My Simplified Life, host Michelle Glogovac speaks with Cindy Muchnick, author of The Parent Compass, about the importance of fostering independence in children from an early age. They discuss the impact of the college admissions scandal on parenting styles, the necessity of early parenting strategies, and the challenges parents face in allowing their children to take responsibility for their own lives. Cindy emphasizes the need for parents to build support networks and navigate the pressures of parenting in today's society, while also addressing the broader context of parenting across different communities. What We're Talking About... Start instilling good habits in children early. The college admissions scandal highlighted extreme parenting behaviors. Parents need to allow children to learn self-advocacy skills. It's important to build a support network for parents. The Parent Compass offers practical skills for parenting. Less micromanaging leads to more accountability in kids. Parents should plant the seeds of independence early. Navigating parenting challenges requires community support. The pressure on parents is higher than ever. Every child is different; what works for one may not work for another.

The prosecution's response is due by October 16th and then Read will have a chance to reply by October 25th. Oral Arguments will most likely be at the end of November 2024 to hopefully get a decision by December 2024. There is a high likelihood that the defense will ask for the retrial to be scheduled further out.The Baby Reindeer Civil Lawsuit has a trial date set for May 2025. Netflix has filed a request for Dismissal and Anti-SLAPP. Netflix provided a Declaration from Richard Gadd including many exhibits proving Fiona Harvey sent Richard Gadd harassing emails, text messages, voice mails, and also accusations of stalking a Member of Parliaments' wife.These exhibits show that Harvey did do the things detailed in the mini series but was not a "beat by beat" recount of what happened. The Judge made a ruling by denying the Anti-SLAPP and dismissed some of the causes of action from Fiona's case; only leaving the Defamation and Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress. The line in the Netflix show that said, “this is a true story” was false and can imply malice because it can lead the viewer to believe that all of the things that happened in the series were true when that is not the case. It is likely that the case will go to mediation and settle out of court.Netflix is being sued for defamation by John Wilson for the documentary: Operation Varsity Blues - The College Admissions Scandal. John Wilson had almost all of his convictions overturned on appeal and that was not included in the documentary.

Education Headline RoundupThis week in the roundup of latest news and headlines impacting education:Ohio is set to increase the prices for teacher licensing fees in order to prevent the Ohio Board of Education from having a $3.5 million budget shortfall next year.In response to a growing literacy crisis, Oregon has so far distributed about $28 million in grants aimed at bolstering reading education. This initiative represents a critical effort to enhance educational outcomes and address systemic challenges in early education. According to NPR, “Surveyed schools in Oregon remain nearly two-thirds of a year behind pre-pandemic levels in reading,” and “learning loss in Oregon is roughly two to three times worse than national averages.”Schools across the nation are facing an alarming increase in student absences. Recent Pew Research data polled educators across the nation; 61% of high school teachers said chronic absenteeism was a problem at their schools. Researchers are pointing to a cultural shift in the wake of COVID-19 concerning our relationship to school.The Great College Con: Operation Varsity BluesThis week we take a walk through the concealed corridors of privilege and power within the U.S. college admissions system. A wide-ranging scandal known as Operation Varsity Blues (unveiled in March 2019) reflects the complex, often unseen mechanisms that shape educational access and equity at some of the U.S.'s most elite colleges and universities.Operation Varsity Blues exposed a network of wealthy parents and college coaches, who with an orchestrator named Rick Singer manipulated admissions systems to favor their children, often without the students' knowledge. Singer's scheme involved a so-called "side door" into prestigious colleges, and his activities facilitated more than $25 million in bribes. Through fabricated athletic profiles and manipulated standardized test scores, the scandal implicated celebrities, executives, and coaches. The scandal prompted a reevaluation of admissions policies and the role of standardized testing in evaluating scholastic merit.We'll discuss whether meritocracy has become a myth, what part test-optional policies play in admissions reform, the impact on student mental health brought by the college application rat race, and how college rankings apply pressure to the admissions process.Thanks for listening!Sources & Resources:Watch Out: Tornado Alley Is Migrating Eastward | Scientific AmericanIowa vs. South Carolina TV ratings: How 2024 NCAA women's championship broadcast compares to other sportsOhio's Board of Education expresses budget crisis following education department overhaul | 10tv.comOhio school board may raise teacher license fees as budget shortfall loomsOregon schools' pandemic recovery lags behind much of the nation : NPROregon Literacy Crisis: State distributes millions in grants aimed at reading educationA Crisis of School Absences - The New York TimesWhat's It Like To Be a Teacher in America Today? | Pew Research CenterAbsent Peers, Present Challenges: The Differential Impact of In-Person and Virtual Classmate Absences on Future Attendance | Texas Tech College of EducationTV celebrities and coaches charged in college bribery scheme | AP NewsWeb Archive - About The KeyDo donations influence college admissions? | Higher Ed DiveActresses, Business Leaders and Other Wealthy Parents Charged in U.S. College Entry Fraud - The New York TimesWho's Been Charged in the College Admissions Cheating Scandal?

Today we're taking a different enmeshed crime path. In so many cases on this show, we talk about parents that really should have cared more about their kids. But what about the parents who take their devotion to their children to a criminal level?  The “snowplow parent” is defined as a person who constantly forces obstacles out of their kids' paths. They have their eye on the future success of their child, and anyone or anything that stands in their way has to be removed.  Today we're talking about a sprawling scheme that includes millions of dollars, an FBI wiretap, and the high-profile arrests of actresses Lori Loughlin and Felicity Huffman among many other wealthy parents and co-conspirators.  This episode will cover ‘Operation Varsity Blues', also known as the college admissions scandal.  Why spend money on tutors when you can just buy your kid's way into college?  Hosted and edited by Amanda ScottCo-Hosted, produced, researched, co-written and original graphic design by Pamela ScottOriginal music by Waves EntertainmentDisclaimer by Chuck HaungsENMESHED is an OH NO!

On this week's episode of LA Legal, USC's official law firm sponsor, Lyfe Law, sits down with our attorneys to discuss what may be known as the biggest white-collar scandal of this century: The 2019 College Admission Bribery Scandal, where 50 people were charged with bribery conspiracy, including Full House actress Lori Loughlin. All this was done in an attempt to get their children unfairly admitted into the United States' most elite colleges.

This week we're rattling off shows we crushed during COVID TV binges, remembering classic 90s and 2000s throwback songs, and laughing about how Olivia Jade Giannulli (aka O.J. Loughlin) should never get caught posting kayaking photos. You know how sometimes one little tiny moment in a song totally MAKES the entire song? Yeah, we share a couple examples of those and would love it if you'd send yours in to us at myfavoriteburgerpod@gmail.com or @myfavoriteburgerpod on Instagram. This episode features clips of ads from Hilton, and their family of BRANDS.

Full Hour | In today's third hour, Dom leads off the Dom Giordano Program by telling about a ridiculous giveaway by the Trenton Thunder, who have decided to offer free Narcan for attendees of an upcoming game. Then, Giordano and Producer Dan enter into a discussion centered around student loans and college attendance, with Dom reporting a decrease in enrollment, asking whether the narrative around student loans and high tuition prices have deterred some from secondary education. This leads Dom to tell about an incident playing out with Georgetown University, in which a father was charged for falsifying information in an effort to gain admission for his daughter. Then, after getting word of a news conference by the Department of Justice, Dom takes Attorney General Merrick Garland as he answers questions related to the FBI raid of Donald Trump's Mar-A-Lago.

Beth speaks with Melissa Korn, a higher education journalist for The Wall Street Journal, about the Varsity Blues college admissions scandal, its impact on the admissions process so far, and what the scandal has revealed about our higher education system. See Melissa and co-author Jennifer Levitz's recent book about the Varsity Blues scandal: "https://www.amazon.com/Unacceptable-Privilege-College-Admissions-Scandal-ebook/dp/B085XK4KFH (Unacceptable: Privilege, Deceit & the Making of the College Admissions Scandal)" (Penguin Random House, 2020).

In 2019, the world first became aware of Rick Singer, a supposed “mastermind” behind the now infamous College Admissions Scandal. Singer's web of deceit entangled everyone from high-powered CEOS to Hollywood stars, capitalizing on the rising fever and fraud endemic in higher education. Singer, a slender yet brash ex-basketball coach ingratiated himself with dozens of families, coaches, and administrators in an attempt to exploit loopholes and oversights, ultimately rewarding his wealthy clients with what he called a “side door” into higher education.We now know that untold numbers of these marks were complicit or even conspiratorial in their cooperation with Singer. Our guest Perry Kalmus, the COO of the Princeton Education Network and founder of AKALA, an organization committed to leveling the playing field in higher education is here to give us an insiders perspective of this story while reminding listeners that regardless of the schadenfreude that has dominated the tabloid media, hundreds of seemingly obscure or unknown colleges and universities can provide high quality, vocationally focused education for anyone who is willing to look beyond the outdated, high profile college rankings.

Is hard work enough to achieve success in life?  Vanessa Lech, a licensed clinical social worker and writer joins me to discuss the myth and fallacy of hard work always leading to success in life.  Despite her efforts and credentials, Vanessa admits it has not led to financial freedom for her.For women and people of color hard work rarely leads to the kind of success we associate with making it.  Obstacles such as poverty, racism, underfunded schools create barriers that can seem impossible to overcome.Women for example have to work twice as hard as men to have a chance at climbing the proverbial ladder of success yet continue to make less than men on average across industries.  Vanessa addresses these disparities and talks about ways  we can move forward.  To learn more about Vanessa, please visit https://www.transforminganxiety.com/18To download your FREE PDF Self Care guide, please click hereFollow Dr. Sekandari on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr_nafisa_sekandariFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/dr.sekandariJoin private FB Group Transforming Anxiety: https://www.facebook.com/groups/transforminganxietyWatch Video Recording on YoutubeTo learn more about Dr. Sekandari's Transforming  Anxiety Course, a self paced, online course that helps you manage and control your anxiety from the comfort and privacy of your own home, visit https://www.transforminganxiety.com/course
