Hey Gino! Good info in the segment… As a high school inner city, public school teacher in NY, a lot of what you discuss here is rampant in my everyday. I have a few comments, but I want to first mention that, although you may not be a parent, you were a child! I know you can relate to the child and your experience as an educator also contributes! being a parent is extremely hard, but your care and effort is valuable!

I agree with your point about being caught in a hamster wheel trap, focused on providing for our family, yet not having the time to raise our children properly. We know though the slew of “causal factors” why we feel that way. I think it is more of a “feeling” rather than the Truth. We’re made to feel like we don’t have the the time, but in reality we’re choosing to spend our time and money on superficial things that don’t have any real significance. The bond you speak of doesn’t cost any money and it is the solution. While listening to your segment, I was thinking about any child in my life and could easily identify the pattern between strong bond with an adult and a healthier child than those without. This is very good to discuss further. I honestly have never given that much thought. I find it incredible, the real solutions for humanity problems don’t cost money.
