How to Listen so Parents will Talk, and Talk so Parents will Listen

It would be nice to know everything. And if you have children, it
would be nice to know about all the wild parenting adventures
awaiting you. But you don’t know. You don’t know because there’s
no special instruction manual that comes along with the birth of
your first child. In this Practically Perfect Parenting episode,
we talk about all things parenting education, because parenting
education is the best substitute for the absence of an
instruction manual; it might even be better, because parenting
education is experiential, responsive to your needs, and way more
supportive than a book. Why should you listen to this
episode? Well, one good reason is that John tells the famous
bathtub story, and although Sara doesn’t manage to hum the “Jaws”
music, unless you’ve watched Caddyshack, you probably won’t guess
how the story ends.
