"Dopamine Kids": Privilege, Pixels and the Endless Bottom with Selena Salfen, MPH, RD

Selena Salfen, MPH, RD returns to the show to talk about Michaeleen Doucleff's book Dopamine Kids; A Science-Based Plan to Rewire Your Child's Brain and Take Back Your Family in the Age of Screens and Ultraprocessed Foods.

Selena shares her experience parenting a child who has ADHD, autism and different feeding needs than Doucleff's. Selena tried out one of Doucleff's parenting exercises with her kiddo and we all get to hear it! She also shares the two things she found helpful about the book.

Doucleff has written two books to tell people how to parent, based on the research she has chosen and interventions she's used with her only child in a homeschooled environment which includes 15 chickens, a vegetable garden and greenhouse, homemade sourdough and a family phone that sits in a drawer and only calls or texts. Dopamine Kids is, ultimately, a book about how Doucleff has been lucky enough to put together the life that she wants for herself and her daughter, not a book with universal guidance on parenting.
