Episode 020: Why I Encourage My Kids to Tell Me No: Raising Autonomous Children - Part 2 by Bridget McNamara with Family Optimized.

Family Optimized, founded by Chris Egan, is a practical toolbox for helping parents solve problems. They cultivate ideas by using the connected power of the Internet and the art of storytelling to address common (and not-so-common) family problems. They present those stories and ideas as a multi-media website. In other words, they find people that write about parenting and family-life from a place of experience and share their stories so other people can learn from them—think self-improvement for parents and families.
