Is it possible that giving our kids more freedom might actually help them thrive? In this powerful episode of The Fresh Start Family Show, Wendy welcomes Lenore Skenazy—author, speaker, and founder of Let Grow—to explore the surprising connection between independence and mental wellness in kids. Together, they unpack how our culture's obsession with safety and control is fueling anxiety, and how simple acts of trust—like letting kids walk to the store or ride a bike alone—can be the very antidote our families need. Lenore shares the story that launched her into the national spotlight as “America's Worst Mom” (spoiler: she's anything but), along with decades of insight from research partners like Dr. Peter Gray and Jonathan Haidt. With warmth and humor, she offers actionable ideas and free Let Grow resources to help parents reclaim their confidence and raise capable, resilient kids. This is an inspiring, perspective-shifting episode for every parent ready to let go… and let grow.

Kids and teens are experiencing less independence than in the past — whether due to screen time, parents' fears of letting them roam freely, or other factors. It's a problem. But why? And what can be done? In this episode, host Dr. Delaney Ruston discusses this important topic with journalist Lenore Skenazy, who was labeled “America's Worst Mom” after letting her 9-year-old take the New York City subway home alone. Skenazy has spent years sounding the alarm on the harms of decreased youth autonomy, including co-founding Let Grow with psychologists Jonathan Haidt and Peter Gray. This episode explores the factors contributing to decreased independence and offers tools for parents and schools to combat this trend. It also examines the role of technology and tracking devices in this context, addressing both their benefits and potential pitfalls.

Ravi welcomes Lenore Skenazy, author of Free-Range Kids and president of Let Grow, to discuss the state of modern parenting. Dubbed “America's Worst Mom” for allowing her son to ride the subway alone, Lenore shares her thoughts on how fear-driven media and overprotection have altered childhood. Ravi and Lenore explore the rise of “helicopter parenting,” how giving children autonomy can strengthen their resilience, and the broader societal implications of a generation growing up with limited freedom.

When Lenore Skenazy let her nine-year-old son Izzy find his own way home by subway in New York City, she was reviled by some as "America's Worst Mom." But Lenore feels that as a society, adults have taken away freedom and autonomy from children, leaving in their place anxiety and passivity. The organization she co-founded, Let Grow, encourages parents to give their children the kind of small freedoms their generation had enjoyed  as children, such as walking alone to school or to the park, and playing  freely with other children, without being directed by adults. How can schools and parents give children more free play, independence and responsibility? Is there evidence this can boost mental health and wellbeing?

In many ways, modern parenting practices might be depriving children of the joys and benefits of independence and free play. With increased emphasis on structured activities, screen time, and academic achievement, kids often have less opportunity to engage in unstructured, imaginative play. This kind of play is crucial for developing creativity, problem-solving skills, and social interactions. The shift in focus impacts their ability to build resilience and self-confidence, essential traits for their growth and development. Lenore Skenazy is a non-profit founder and is known as "America's Worst Mom" for allowing her young son to ride the subway alone. She shares how her experiences led her to launch the organization Let Grow. Their mission is to make independence and free play for kids easy, normal, and legal again. Lenore questions if we have truly made our kids safer, or just anxious and depressed. Are we denying them the confidence, leadership and problem-solving skills that come from facing challenges independently? Join in as young leaders pose inquiries about life, personal development, and beyond! Quotes: “Action breaks the cycle when you keep thinking, ‘This could go wrong,' or ‘I could never forgive myself.'” – Lenore Skenazy “We can't be with them because when we're with them, we're going to help, we're going to chastise, and we're going to see that they're being mean, or dumb, or wasting their time.” – Lenore Skenazy “We really have to come up with a way to make it easy and normal and legal to give kids back some independence and free play.” – Lenore Skenazy Takeaways: Allow children more unstructured free play and independence by giving them small tasks to complete alone, like running errands or making meals. Observe how accomplishing things independently builds their confidence and competence. Reduce your involvement in your children's play and exploration. Give them space to problem solve, get bored, argue with peers, and discover things on their own, without constant adult guidance or intervention. Question the fear-based narratives around child safety that are perpetuated by media and society. Consider the actual statistics on risks like abduction and assess whether your fears align with reality or are inflated. Identify one small new activity you will feel comfortable allowing your child to do independently, like walking to a friend's house or visiting the library alone. Try it and see how it affects both your and their confidence. Conclusion: Modern parenting practices often limit children's independence and free play, depriving them of important learning experiences and joys. Encouraging more freedom and unstructured play can help kids develop vital skills and a sense of autonomy. Balancing safety with independence is key to fostering healthier and happier childhoods.

Is constant parental supervision limiting children's ability to develop problem-solving skills? In this episode, hosts Wes Brown and Dr. Sonya Lutter explore childhood independence and resilience with guest Lenore Skenazy, founder of the organization Let Grow and author of the book "Free-Range Kids."Skenazy shares her journey advocating for more freedom for kids through experiences like independent travel. Skenazy discusses reasonable childhood independence laws and how giving kids opportunities to overcome minor challenges and adversity can build resilience in a way that benefits both children and parents.Links: Let Grow Website | LinkedIn | InstagramFree Range Kids Website | BookLenore Skenazy on LinkedIn - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -Learn more about Analog AdvisorAnalog Advisor is a production of Palm Tree Pod Co.Subscribe Apple Podcast | SpotifyFollow Us Twitter | LinkedIn | WebsiteHave thoughts or ideas for future topics or episodes, email us at hello@analogadvisorpodcast.com

How can you empower your child to embrace independence? Listen in to my guest, Lenore Skenazy as she shares her time-tested insights. Click here for the show notes and extra resources. Today's guest was named “America's Worst Mom” for supporting her son's desire to take the subway home 16 years ago. Since then, she has been on a mission to support parents and schools to help children regain their much-needed independence. What We Talked About: Why fostering independence in children is crucial for their development, resilience, and confidence How societal changes have increased parental fear and overprotection Practical ways parents can encourage independence in their children Balancing safety and freedom How modern technology is reducing family communication Benefits of Unstructured Free Play Balancing technology and real-world experiences Things to Remember “Parenting is recognizing that kids are going to be who they are. We have got to give them space and time to figure that out on their own.” “Independence is so crucial to children and so natural. It's like a vitamin.” “With parents being away, kids are called upon to do new things and recognize just how competent they can be.” “The more control you think you have doesn't actually make you more calm.” “Give your kids chances to help you and to show you how capable, competent, and kind they are.” “There's too much pressure on parents to know everything and to shape our children when we can't.” - Lenore Skenazy “The child looks for his independence first, not because he does not desire to be dependent on the adult. But because he has in himself some fire, some urge, to do certain things and not other things.” - Dr. Maria Montessori   Click here for the showe notes and extra resources.

He is best known, however, for his namesake blog, Teacher Tom's Blog, where he has posted daily for over a decade, chronicling the life and times of his little preschool in the rain-soaked Pacific Northwest corner of the USA.For nearly two decades, Teacher Tom was the sole employee of the Woodland Park Cooperative School, a parent-owned and operated school knit together by Teacher Tom's democratic, progressive play-based pedagogy. Teacher Tom came into teaching through the backdoor, so to speak, having enrolled his own child in a cooperative preschool, where he began working daily in his daughter's classroom as an assistant teacher under the tutelage of veteran educators — although he'll be the first to tell you that most of what he learned came from the children themselves. When it was time for his daughter to move on, he “stayed behind.”Today, Teacher Tom shares his play-based pedagogy through online e-courses for early childhood educators; produces online early childhood conferences; consults with organizations about his "Family Schools" program; and inspires early-years audiences around the world (Greece, UK, Iceland, Australia, China, Vietnam, New Zealand, Canada, and across the US) both virtually and in-person with his engaging views on early childhood education, play, and pedagogy.He was pressured by his blog readers into authoring his first book, aptly named Teacher Tom's First Book, and is thrilled about the 2023 release of Teacher Tom's Second Book.Resources, people, and websites mentioned in this episode:MiraseeTom's website: TeacherTomsWorld.comLenore's nonprofit, Let Grow: LetGrow.orgLenore's email: Lenore@LetGrow.orgFor show notes, visit Presenting Teacher Tom's Podcast (Lenore Skenazy)The Let Grow Experience (a free independence-building curriculum for teachers/schools): https://letgrow.org/program/experience/The Let Grow Play Club (free implementation guide for schools, homeschools, YMCAs, churches, synagogues, etc., to create a "free play" program for kids):https://letgrow.org/program/play-club/Independence Therapy Manual (free manual for therapists and counselors on how to use independence to combat or prevent childhood anxiety): https://letgrow.org/program/independence-therapy/Pledge of Independence (pledge parents can take to receive one activity a week for 10 weeks to help them get comfortable giving their kids more independence, free): https://letgrow.org/program/pledge/Let Grow Kid License (free "license" kids can carry around when out and about on their own that says, "I'm not lost or neglected!" and gives the parents' phone number): https://letgrow.org/printable/letgrowlicense/Free-Range Kids book: https://amzn.to/3FT7bEwFree-Range Kids book, free chapter for educators: https://letgrow.org/free-chapter/ Jonathan Haidt

Lenore Skenazy is the author of Free-Range Kids: How Parents and Teachers Can Let Go and Let Grow and is President of Let Grow, a nonprofit organization dedicated to promoting play and independence in children and adolesecence. Ms Skenazy created quite a sensation after her article "Why I Let My 9-Year-Old Ride the Subway Alone" and got labeled "America's Worst Mom". This lead her to start Let Grow which is an invaluable resource for helping schools and parents promote healthy growth promoting independence in children. Her approach has the benefit of simplicity and common sense. By encouraging independent activity, you are promoting confidence and decreasing anxiety in your child. And it also happens to be fun. Pair this interview with the one I did last year with Camillo Ortiz, PhD who developed an innovative approach to helping anxious children by givng them mega doses of independence.  Ms. Skenazy also helped Jonthan Haidt in his recent book Anxious Generation write the recommendations about how to correct a "phone based childhood" and return it to a "play based childhood".      Let Grow website https://r.search.yahoo.com/_ylt=AwrFEIxplh1mPrQWQyNXNyoA;_ylu=Y29sbwNiZjEEcG9zAzEEdnRpZAMEc2VjA3Ny/RV=2/RE=1714424681/RO=10/RU=https%3a%2f%2fletgrow.org%2f/RK=2/RS=UD_aH_MXQEBH_BBxdrHFYlXabIM-

The ladies get a nice surprise guest as Jeannie Gaffigan's daughter briefly joins them to share some deep Gen Z insights. We talk parenting boundaries, consequences, and the joy of being bored. Karen's Worst Mom of the Week is a total twat, and Kyle ends on a story about a potty-trained pigeon.

That's what A LOT of peeps are saying

When Lenore Skenazy's son was nine, he asked her repeatedly if she would let him have a solo adventure in their hometown of New York City. Her son had a specific plan for this adventure: he wanted her to take him somewhere new in the city and then let him find his own way home. Lenore took the leap of faith, and when her son burst into their apartment later, he was practically “levitating with pride and joy” at what he had accomplished.Lenore then wrote an article in the New York Sun called “Why I Let My 9-Year-Old Ride the Subway Alone” — and a media firestorm ensued. We'll let Lenore share more about that particular time, but she realized then how radical and important an idea it was for modern parents to “let go.” In 2017, Jonathan Haidt, co-author of The Coddling of the American Mind reached out to Lenore with two others, all of whom shared concerns about the increasing fragility they're seeing in young people in America, and the poor outcomes that follow. They went on to launch Let Grow, a non-profit organization that promotes childhood independence.Lenore's message is that parents can sometimes become compulsive about protecting children from every possible danger, but blind to the trade-offs: decreased independence, resilience, social skills, and creativity, and increased anxiety and depression.But this message also has broader implications for our lives and our faith: while we often tend to try to micromanage everything with the mistaken belief that we can prevent anything bad from happening, deep faith can help us see that there's Something Bigger going on — and we don't always need to be in control.We found Lenore to be delightful—she's sharp, funny, and has profoundly important things to say for anyone interested in helping our next generations to be resilient and happy. We really hope you enjoy this conversation with Lenore Skenazy.———Subscribe to Wayfare here: wayfaremagazine.org

Now Lenore is co-founder and president of Let Grow, the nonprofit promoting childhood independence and resilience. She lives in New York City with her husband and beloved computer. Her children are gainfully employed. (Phew!) And for the record, she used to write for Mad Magazine. Yep. MAD. But now she's so serious that here is her piece on "Independence as Therapy" in The New York Times.“Teacher Tom” Hobson is an early childhood educator, international speaker, education consultant, teacher of teachers, parent educator, and author. He is best known, however, for his namesake blog, Teacher Tom's Blog, where he has posted daily for over a decade, chronicling the life and times of his little preschool in the rain-soaked Pacific Northwest corner of the USA.For nearly two decades, Teacher Tom was the sole employee of the Woodland Park Cooperative School, a parent-owned and operated school knit together by Teacher Tom's democratic, progressive play-based pedagogy. Teacher Tom came into teaching through the backdoor, so to speak, having enrolled his own child in a cooperative preschool, where he began working daily in his daughter's classroom as an assistant teacher under the tutelage of veteran educators — although he'll be the first to tell you that most of what he learned came from the children themselves. When it was time for his daughter to move on, he “stayed behind.”Today, Teacher Tom shares his play-based pedagogy through online e-courses for early childhood educators; produces online early childhood conferences; consults with organizations about his “Family Schools” program; and inspires early-years audiences around the world (Greece, UK, Iceland, Australia, China, Vietnam, New Zealand, Canada, and across the US) both virtually and in-person with his engaging views on early childhood education, play, and pedagogy.He was pressured by his blog readers into authoring his first book, aptly named Teacher Tom's First Book, and is thrilled about the 2023 release of Teacher Tom's Second Book.Resources, people, and websites mentioned in this episode:MiraseeTom's website: TeacherTomsWorld.comLenore's nonprofit, Let Grow: LetGrow.orgLenore's email: Lenore@LetGrow.orgFor show notes, visit Free to Be, Free to Grow (Lenore Skenazy)The Let Grow Experience (a free independence-building curriculum for teachers/schools): https://letgrow.org/program/experience/The Let Grow Play Club (free implementation guide for schools, homeschools, YMCAs, churches, synagogues, etc., to create a "free play" program for kids): https://letgrow.org/program/play-club/Independence Therapy Manual (free manual for therapists and counselors on how to use independence to combat or prevent childhood anxiety):https://letgrow.org/program/independence-therapy/Pledge of Independence (pledge parents can take to receive one activity a week for 10 weeks to help them get comfortable giving their kids more independence, free): https://letgrow.org/program/pledge/Let Grow Kid License (free "license" kids can carry around when out and about on their own that says, "I'm not lost or neglected!" and gives the parents' phone number): https://letgrow.org/printable/letgrowlicense/Free-Range Kids book: https://amzn.to/3FT7bEwFree-Range Kids book, free chapter for educators: https://letgrow.org/free-chapter/

Happy Friday. We talked about who we think might be the worst mother in the area. We also gave out our last pair of Breaking Benjamin tickets!

Our interview guest today has been a journalist and writer for many years and earned herself the title of “Worst Mom in America.” I'm so proud to interview her because she earned that title when she let her 9-year-old ride the subway alone and wasn't afraid to write about it in a major publication.

This week, Kaity & Adriane chat with Lenore Skenazy, author of "Free-Range Kids." You might have heard her called "America's Worst Mom." But don't let that moniker fool you! Lenore's journey from her kid's controversial subway ride to becoming a leading voice in child independence is nothing short of remarkable. In Episode 30 of The KindlED Podcast, we dive deep into the world of free-range parenting with the woman who started it all.This episode also explores:

We're joined by fan favorite, author, and mom of five, Jeannie Gaffigan. The best selling writer shares how her oldest daughter wouldn't accept a Starbucks gift card because of her social justice morals while her other kid was more than willing to take it. The moms ponder what we can do to make the world better while acknowledging it's all so exhausting. Karen's Worst Mom is a real downer while Kyle's Headline is about, perhaps, the most obnoxious mom that ever walked the planet.

WARNING: The following podcast contains extremely disturbing descriptions of child abuse, murder and other atrocious acts and crimes. A parents job is to protect and love their children... but that doesn't always happen. You see, in the 1980's a killer mom terrorized her children inside of their home in California, and when the details of the murders finally emerged and were published in the media, people were absolutely astonished. They literally couldn't believe what they were reading.

There was a time when Lenore Skenazy was labeled America's Worst Mom for letting her 9 year old ride the subway alone in New York City. We talk to Skenazy about the latest research and how to give kids back the voice they've lost.

Early episodes of Sesame Street from the late 1960s show five-year-olds walking streets alone, talking to strangers, and playing on vacant lots, but when those episodes were released on DVD years later a warning was added at the beginning saying “The following is intended for adult viewing only and may not be suitable for young viewers.” I read about this in ‘Stolen Focus', the massive bestseller by Johann Hari, our guest in Chapter 121. Johann went on in his book to discuss how ‘the confinement of our children' is contributing to our plummeting ability to focus and he brought the idea to light wonderfully in his book by spotlighting the activism of Lenore Skenazy. Lenore Skenazy is a Jackson Heights, New York mom of two who wrote a 2008 column for The New York Sun titled ‘Why I Let My 9-Year-Old Ride The Subway Alone.' The article set off a huge media firestorm where Lenore was dubbed “America's Worst Mom.” Undeterred, Lenore went on to coin the phrase “free-range kids”, write a bestselling book by the same name, and then five years ago co-founded a non-profit called ‘Let Grow' which aims to give kids back the developmentally crucial ‘vitamin' our culture has removed from childhood: independence! Before her current work, Lenore wrote for The New York Daily News, New York Sun, and Mad Magazine (!). She has degrees from Yale and Columbia and is on the front lines of movements to bring back trust, independence, and free play in our children. She has created The Let Grow Project which partners with schools to give students the simple homework assignment to “Go home and do something new, on your own.” She created ‘Take Our Children to the Park & Leave Them There Day' as a day for children to learn how to play without constant supervision. And Let Grow, the organization she co-founded with Jonathan Haidt (our guest in Chapter 103), Dr. Peter Gray, and Daniel Shuchman, has been helping to draft and sponsor 'free-range kid' legislation supporting reasonable child independence. To date, they have helped pass laws in eight states. Join us as we discuss: recess, preventing anxiety in kids, the problem with child protective services, getting attention in activism today, the importance of fun, and, of course, Lenore's three most formative books...

Lenore Skenazy didn't think much of the time that she granted her 9-year-old's request and allowed him to ride the subway alone in NYC. So, following his safe return, this New York columnist wrote up an article about it. But she never could have predicted the media firestorm that this decision set off, which eventually crowned her with the title of “America's Worst Mom.” But how did our society get to this point? When did parents begin seeing childhood only through the fear-filled lens of “What could go terribly wrong?” Today, Lenore joins Keith to discuss. Listen as she explains how culture forces fear upon both parents and educators and describes the negative effects this has on children. Has the goal of parenting changed? Should we really strive for helicopter parenting, or is there another way? Plus, hear how her nonprofit, Let Grow, seeks to restore independence to children and faith to their parents and teachers. Whether you're a parent or not, you'll love hearing from Lenore! Ok, truth time... Did you like this episode? Tell us by leaving a rating or review!

Themes: Parenting, Safetyism, Fragility, Resilience, Childhood Independence, Autonomy, Technology Summary:  After her newspaper column “Why I Let My 9-Year-Old Ride the Subway Alone” created a media firestorm, Lenore Skenazy got the nickname “America's Worst Mom.” Nice. She went on to write Free-Range Kids, the book-turned-movement. (Second Edition just out!) She has been profiled in The New Yorker and lectured everywhere, from DreamWorks to Microsoft HQ to schools across America. On TV, you may have seen her on The Today Show, The Daily Show or her own reality show, World's Worst Mom. Now Lenore is co-founder and president of Let Grow, the national nonprofit promoting childhood independence. I was struck by Lenore's story, and as I step into fatherhood this year, I knew I had to have her on the podcast. Tune in to learn how parenting has changed over the past few decades, why safety has become a top priority for parents nowadays, and how unsupervised play and letting go a little are key in raising resilient, confident and independent children.

Lenore Skenazy has been known by the nickname “America's Worst Mom.” And yet I'm featuring her as a parenting expert in my upcoming Boundless Parenting book. Hear me out... Lenore graduated from Yale in 1981, and earned her master's degree from Columbia University in 1983. A speaker, blogger, syndicated columnist, and reality show host, Lenore has been featured by national media outlets, including NPR, the New York Daily News, Good Morning America, and NBC News. Until 2008, Lenore was a regular columnist for the New York Sun. Her controversial piece, "Why I Let My 9-Year-Old Ride the Subway Alone," received worldwide news coverage and earned her that "Worst Mom" nickname. However, the column also led to the founding of a blog called Free-Range Kids, which is "fighting the belief that our children are in constant danger from creeps, kidnapping, germs, grades, flashers, frustration, failure, baby snatchers, bugs, bullies, men, sleepovers and/or the perils of a non-organic grape." A bestselling book that followed, also called Free-Range Kids, kicked off a movement that promotes childhood independence and resilience as the path for children to grow into capable, confident, and happy adults. Lenore serves as the president of Let Grow, the non-profit organization behind Free-Range Kids. On her television show World's Worst Mom, Lenore trains overprotective parents to give their children more independence and confidence. Lenore Skenazy believes that the concept of helicopter parenting, excessive and often unnecessary worry about safety, and lack of creative and slightly dangerous free play are hampering the health and growth of children.
