How To Raise Kids in a Nation Full of Guns

How To Raise Kids in a Nation Full of Guns

Guns are now the leading cause of death for children in America. Each tragedy can be visceral, whether it's in your community or across the country. And it's especially heartbreaking when your kid voices that fear directly, as our listener Allison recently experienced. On this episode of How To!, co-host Amanda Ripley brings in Melinda Wenner Moyer. Melinda is an author and science journalist with years covering gun violence and parenting issues. She's also the author of the substack, Is My Kid the Asshole? where she shares science-based approaches to lower the possibility of gun violence, help kids feel safe, and, ultimately, change the environment.
