In this conversation, Dan discusses the importance of commitment and resilience in youth sports, particularly wrestling. He shares a personal story about his son's initial reluctance to participate and emphasizes the need for children to learn responsibility and the value of teamwork. Dan believes that allowing kids to quit can lead to a lifelong habit of giving up, and he stresses the significance of showing up for teammates. Takeaways; Teaching kids commitment is crucial for their development. Resilience is a skill that can be nurtured from a young age. The act of quitting can become a habit if not addressed early. Team sports teach children about responsibility to others. Wrestling requires not just individual effort but also teamwork. Parents play a vital role in instilling a sense of duty in their children. Conversations about commitment can help shape a child's mindset. Encouraging kids to push through challenges builds character. The importance of showing up extends beyond sports to life. Setting expectations can help children understand the value of perseverance. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Jennifer Wallace is a journalist, researcher, and mother of three who set out to answer one of the most pressing questions in modern parenting: *Why do our kids feel like they're never enough — and what can we do about it?* Drawing on insights from her book *Never Enough* and years of reporting, Wallace explains how achievement culture, status anxiety, and social comparison are undermining children's mental health, resilience, and self-worth.In this illuminating and deeply personal conversation, she explores how economic uncertainty and hyper-competitive education systems have created a toxic climate that pushes both parents and children toward perfectionism and burnout. From the myth of elite colleges to the danger of tying love to performance, Wallace makes the case for redefining success around the concept of **mattering** — feeling valued, and adding value to others. She shares practical interventions parents can use, and why adult resilience is a prerequisite for raising healthy kids.Whether you're a parent, teacher, or anyone invested in the next generation, this episode will reshape how you think about achievement, love, and what it truly means to succeed.

In Part Two of my conversation, with Professor Jeremy Jamieson we explore the fascinating dynamics of stress and resilience, specifically emphasising the roles parents can play in helping their children grow up resilient and strong. We discuss the importance of fostering a positive relationship with stress and understanding the biological and psychological factors that play into this often misunderstood aspect of life. What You'll Learn: Understanding Stress: Discover how stress functions as a natural response and how it can be beneficial rather than detrimental. Challenge vs. Threat Mindsets: Learn why perceiving stress as a challenge rather than a threat can completely alter the physiological response. Parenting Techniques for Resilience: Get insights into how parents can prepare their children for life's challenges by encouraging them to tackle difficult situations head-on. Key Takeaways: Stress is Not the Enemy: Stress, when approached properly, can be a tool for growth and resilience rather than a harmful force. It’s about perception and management. Parents as Guides, Not Rescuers: Instead of removing obstacles for your children, teach them to navigate these challenges. Encourage them to be proactive and resilient. Develop a Toolbox for Stress Management: Different situations require different responses—having a flexible approach to managing stress is crucial. The Role of Physiology in Stress: Understanding and managing physiological responses through activities such as regular exercise, sleep hygiene, and possibly cold immersion sessions can help in dealing with stress effectively. Importance of a Healthy Lifestyle: Adequate sleep, nutrition, and limiting technology use can have profound impacts on mental health, influencing stress levels and resilience capacity.

Are we protecting our kids too much? Today we tackle the controversial topic of risky play — climbing trees, speeding down hills, roughhousing, even handling tools. The things that make parents anxious might actually be the very things kids need most. Discover why risk is essential for resilience, confidence, and courage — and how to give your child the freedom to play without pushing them too far. KEY POINTS Why “risky play” isn’t dangerous play — it’s just play the way we grew up. The Canadian Paediatric Society’s 9 types of risky play (and how to try them at home). Why broken arms aren’t the worst thing, but bubble-wrapping kids might be. The surprising link between risky play and lower anxiety in children. Five simple ways to say yes to risk while keeping things developmentally appropriate.

Step back — give your kids space to take age-appropriate risks. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And how does it shape a child's development?MPR News guest host Kelly Gordon and early childhood education reporter Kyra Miles talk with a developmental psychologist about how to create parent-child attachment and how to know if we're getting it right.

In this thought-provoking episode of Nothing Left Unsaid, Tim Green and his son Troy sit down with journalist and author Lenore Skenazy, famously dubbed “America's Worst Mom” after letting her 9-year-old ride the New York City subway alone. From that moment came a movement, Free-Range Kids and the nonprofit Let Grow, challenging a culture of fear that tells parents constant supervision is the only path to safety. Lenore shares how overprotection and “worst-first thinking” are fueling anxiety in both parents and children, while true resilience is built through independence, problem-solving, and trust. With humor, statistics, and stories from her years as a reporter and advocate, she reveals why kids are far safer than we think and how giving them freedom is one of the greatest gifts we can offer. This conversation blends cultural critique with practical wisdom, offering a hopeful blueprint for raising confident, capable kids in an age of anxiety, true to the mission of Nothing Left Unsaid.

If you’re not intentionally teaching your kids a solid Christian worldview, someone else is shaping their beliefs for you. In this can’t-miss replay from the Christian Parent / Crazy World vault, sits down with Elizabeth Urbanowicz—elementary educator, apologist, and founder of Foundation Worldview—to equip parents for the immense challenge of raising resilient, truth-loving kids in a culture determined to shape their values. While many children in Christian homes learn Bible stories and attend church, a shocking disconnect remains: they often think more like the surrounding culture than like Christ. Elizabeth shares her journey from the Christian classroom—where she saw even well-discipled kids absorbing secular ideas—to developing comprehensive curricula that anchor young minds in biblical truth. A worldview, she explains, is a “mental map” that guides everything we think, say, and do. In this episode, she equips parents to make that map biblical—even for their youngest learners.

Whole-person health starts with whole-family care—and that begins with a provider who sees you, hears you, and truly walks beside you. Dr. Marion Pierson brings decades of heart-led pediatric experience to the conversation, showing how health is more than check-ups and prescriptions—it's about relationships, rest, and raising kids in rhythm with both structure and freedom. Her passion for serving her Kansas City community is palpable, and her insight into direct primary care reminds us that when families are empowered with knowledge, time, and trust, they don't just survive—they thrive. Key Takeaways: Community-based care thrives when families feel seen, supported, and invited into the healthcare process. Simple habits like sleep, hydration, and nutrition can dramatically shift a child's mood, focus, and overall well-being. Transitions, like summer break, can be both freeing and disruptive—maintaining flexible routines helps children stay grounded. Parents' self-care directly impacts how children experience structure, safety, and emotional regulation. The right healthcare fit is like a good relationship—it's built on trust, time, and open communication.
