Lifetime educator, Dr. Mindy Shaw, maintained a philosophy in her classroom of 4 to 8 year olds to "teach humanity daily" in addition to the more traditional skill sets of reading, writing and math. Now, in an era of remote and hybrid learning, the notion of teaching humanity is somewhat threatened. She has created a series of e-books and paperbacks so that parents can have the tools they need for also teaching social and emotional skills, and in this series, Dr. Shaw discusses what it means to teach humanity both in general and in an era of learning via computer.

In this episode, Dr. Shaw returns to her discussion about the content in the Q&A section of her parenting book called I LIKE HOW YOU SPEAK TO ME... A PARENT'S GUIDE TO EFFECTIVE COMMUNICATION WITH CHILDREN. She has a section in that book that covers her "ten most frequently asked questions" which come from parents and educators who are fans of her podcast. That Q&A makes up the closing section of her parenting guide, and if offers up some very practical applications of the content offered up in the first half of her book which are Dr. Shaw's 10 governing principles for effective communication with children. This week, she dives into 10th question from the Q&A and that is... "Are there any subjects that are taboo to discuss with children?" It's a challenging question as each family has different values and mores, but as she reads through the answer to that question in her book, Dr. Shaw covers some important ground and offers a solid point of view on the answer to that question.
