episode notes
About this episode: First, a quick update on the discussion of grades. TL;DR: We hear you and we're already working on ways to improve.
Next up: Lucy, Elizabeth and Jamila support listeners who write in to ask for advice about their seven-year-old's big emotions. This girl exhibits negative self-talk, catastrophic thinking, and signs of anxiety. How can her parents de-escalate…and is it time to reconsider her treatment?
We'll also report on a week in the life of parenting, including stories of magnet schools, brotherhood, and being on top of the table, along with successes and failures.
