Why listen to Zen Parenting Radio because you'll feel outstanding and always remember our motto which is that the best predictor of a child's will being is a parent's self-understanding

We are recording on Sunday afternoon.

We usually record on Monday morning.

Why are we recording earlier today?

So today is May 31st, and not only are we just, at least in Illinois, beginning phase three of the pandemic,

but there are also protests all over the country

that started in Minnesota and have now progressed all around the country.

Most major cities.

Most major cities.

Definitely in Chicago last night, there was a curfew imposed.

And, you know, Todd and I have been talking since all of this began, you know,

how many ever, you know, how many days ago about how we want to discuss this issue. And

we decided that there's no, we just need to tape this show because everything's going to

change this afternoon. It'll change the next day.

Everything is changing. But what we want to talk about regarding the protests is what we can do.

Okay. And when I even say that, I kind of cringe because Todd and I are looking to other people.

We have teachers that we are, you know, we're reading their

material. We're on social media. We're reading books. We are connecting with people that are

smarter than we are about these things. And we are doing our best to find a way to be productive citizens, but more important, and this is, I think,

why we're doing this show, is to use this platform so everybody can see these connections.
