The Good News About Bad Behavior | Katherine Reynolds Lewis, award-winning journalist

Atomic Moms - A podcast by Ellie Knaus

#175: Journalist/parent educator Katherine Reynolds Lewis and I bond over our love for our strict, hyper-achieving Tiger Moms, our fear of disappointing them, and our strong need to parent our children differently. In The Good News About Bad Behavior: Why Kids Are Less Disciplined Than Ever—And What to Do About It, Lewis writes, “we are facing a crisis of self-regulation”. Kids today are spiraling out of control. We talk about how to address the emotional needs of our children and ourselves, how to get our kids on board for household work, the neurological side-effects of critical mothering, the apprenticeship model of parenting, and our soulful mission as mothers. Y’all will LOVE this week’s #mombomb. x Ellie Knaus  Sign up for Katherine’s webinar this Thursday May 3rd here: https://www.katherinerlewis.com/preorder Join us on Instagram: @atomicmoms, Facebook, and our PRIVATE Facebook page: click here Meet Our Guest: Katherine Reynolds Lewis is an award-winning journalist based in the Washington, DC, area who regularly writes for the Atlantic, Fortune, USA Today’s magazines, Washington Post, and Working Mother. Her story about school discipline was Mother Jones' most-read article ever. She is a certified parent educator with the Parent Encouragement Program in Kensington, Maryland.
