Care and Feeding | Slate's parenting show - Should We Pull Out Of Preschool?

We're aware of some playback issues on this episode - if you hear something weird, delete and re-download.

On this episode: Elizabeth, Lucy and Zak help a listener whose son is putting up a fight about preschool. This four-year-old has never loved school, and now he has a new baby sibling to love… so he really doesn’t want to leave home. And it’s getting to the point of peeing on things out of spite. So: what now?

And after that discussion, we’ll of course circle up for a round of triumphs and fails.
