This conversation with William Deresiewicz, author of the bestselling Excellent Sheep, gets to the heart of a question so many families are quietly carrying: what does it actually mean for a child to flourish? Ginny and Bill talk about the way college admissions can cast a shadow backward over all of childhood, turning kids into performers instead of people, and why playtime, downtime, family time, books, boredom, risk, and real freedom are not extras but essentials. It’s a deeply thoughtful episode about stepping off the treadmill, resisting fear-based parenting, and giving children the space to become fully themselves.
