In this episode, I share howmy thinking about politics as evolved over the last decade, and how that shapes the way I talk with my children about it. Rather than focusing on current events or party lines, I walk through the principles we return to in our home:
- Separating problems from people
- Understanding influence verses concern
- Valuing character and leadership
- And learning to solve problems without attacking one another
This episode will help you consider how we can help our kids engage thoughtfully and compassionately with a complex world.
