An Exploration of Easy Child Privilege EP 478

In today's episode, Laura and Sarah take on a concept Laura heard about recently known as "easy child privilege" -- the phenomenon where parents might experience an unearned advantage with kids who are naturally compliant, neurotypical, healthy, or easy to sooth, and then attribute these features to superior parenting. They discuss how this might apply in various realms from eating to sleep to academic milestones. In the Q&A, a listener asks about backup layers of child care -- how did the hosts build their "babysitter bench"? Mentioned in the episode: Laura & Sarah's Patreon!
