We are thrilled to kick off season 2(!) with a bang in the form of a meaty, rich conversation with Eloise Rickman, author ofIt’s Not Fair: Why It’s Time For A Grown-Up Conversation About How Adults Treat Children.We hadn’t thought about children’s rights much before reading Eloise’s book (have you?) and now it’s all we want to think about. What are children’s rights? How can we think about them in the context of parenting? What is adultism? Should kids vote? What even is a child and who gets to decide? Why hasn’t the U.S. ratified the UN Convention on the Rights Of The Child? (anyone, anyone?) If it’s our goal to respect the rights of our children at all times, how do we get our kids to go to bed?Also: Random TMI about Sarah & Miranda’s exercise habits.

Tune in, and share your thoughts below.
