146: How Philosophy and Ethics Must Redefine “Good Parenting” With Author Dr Elizabeth Cripps

What does it mean to be a “good parent” by today’s northern hemisphere, privileged standards?  Good grades, good jobs, good car, and house. What if that is all wrong? What if that is actually contributing to the downfall of civilization?  Dr Elizabeth Cripps, a parent herself, applied her educational training in philosophy to try to answer how we solve global problems like climate change, pandemics, antibiotic resistance, and social inequity by the way we parent and use our collective power for the good of our children but also for all. We had a great discussion about all of that, as well as her latest book, “A Philosopher’s Guide to Doing Right by Your Kids – and Everyone Else”.  Check out some of these great organizations for social action: https://parentsforfuture.orghttps://www.momscleanairforce.orghttps://ourkidsclimate.org/And keep following Dr Cripps work here: on twitter at @ebcripps www.elizabethcripps.weebly.comIf you enjoy my podcast, please like, share and/or write a review! Also, check out The Daily Adler e-newsletter and podcast so you can get inspirational personal development in your inbox daily! https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/daily-adler/id1671211692https://dailyadler.com Hosted on Acast.
