ESCALANTE IN THE EPISODE: Early in your career, you were seeing patients in a well-to-do area outside of Chicago and were surprised by what parents asked. What were they asking? Before you became a parent, what kind of mother did you want to be or see for yourself? How has that changed? And why? What is a "ShouldStorm"? How is parenting today different than it was just one generation ago, during what you call “old school” parenting? Why is it so different today? You talk about a lot of different parenting approaches that have been marketed to contemporary parents, including one which is rather popular now: gentle parenting. How do you feel about this parenting approach over any other? How does Sigh, See, Start work? Can you describe the method? In the book you say that Sigh, See, Start will NOT make you a perfect parent. What does Sigh, See, Start give parents that is so valuable? How can parents effectively navigate challenges such as tantrums, defiance, or sibling rivalry?
