My first 46 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:03,360 Speaker 1: question is usually do you have a favorite child? 47 00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 2: But you've only got one child, so I guess I 48 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 2: know the answer to that one. 49 00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:10,440 Speaker 3: I have a dog, but the human child is the. 50 00:02:10,400 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 1: Favorite, right, not the third baby? Who do you love 51 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 1: the most? The dog, your partner Matt or your baby girl? 52 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 3: My gosh, you know it's I'm all into family, so 53 00:02:19,440 --> 00:02:20,720 Speaker 3: it's all equal? 54 00:02:20,800 --> 00:02:24,000 Speaker 2: Are you so diplomatic? I like people squirming when I 55 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,119 Speaker 2: asked that question. What's your ideal number of kids? 56 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: And why? 57 00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:30,400 Speaker 3: You know? I think three, but I would space them out, 58 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:32,720 Speaker 3: you know, not two years. I would space them to 59 00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:35,920 Speaker 3: four years because I think with three, you've got the 60 00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 3: oldest one. When four years they can start taking care 61 00:02:38,639 --> 00:02:40,840 Speaker 3: of the middle one, and then that teaches the middle 62 00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 3: one how to take care of the little one, and 63 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,400 Speaker 3: you kind of got a whole team going on. It's 64 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 3: like a basketball team, you know. 65 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:46,720 Speaker 1: I like that. 66 00:02:46,720 --> 00:02:48,680 Speaker 3: With I was younger, I would have two more, but 67 00:02:48,760 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 3: space them out. Two years is too short, especially if 68 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,840 Speaker 3: you don't have help. Yeah. 69 00:02:52,960 --> 00:02:55,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, we've got our six. They're all girls, so 70 00:02:55,160 --> 00:02:58,040 Speaker 2: we've got a netball team. Next question for you, I 71 00:02:58,080 --> 00:02:59,880 Speaker 2: know that you used to rate yourself pretty poorly as 72 00:02:59,880 --> 00:03:01,919 Speaker 2: a parent until you went and wrote Hunt, Gather, Parent 73 00:03:01,960 --> 00:03:03,920 Speaker 2: and learned from all of these ancient cultures. How do 74 00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 2: you write yourself as a parent? 75 00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:05,280 Speaker 1: Now? 76 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 3: Okay, I started it like a one out of ten, 77 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:09,079 Speaker 3: and I'm saying like, at a. 78 00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,840 Speaker 1: Seven, that's that's pretty dramatic improvement. Last work. And then 79 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:17,080 Speaker 1: you'll have a teenager and wonder whether you deserve the seven. Well, 80 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:17,840 Speaker 1: we'll give you. 81 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,280 Speaker 3: You'll be a follow up book for the teenager because 82 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 3: I get asked for it all the time, so I 83 00:03:22,040 --> 00:03:23,000 Speaker 3: know I'm gonna need it. 84 00:03:23,160 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 1: Wonderful. 85 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:26,079 Speaker 2: What's something great that your parents did that you've tried 86 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 2: to continue on your parenting? 87 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 3: My dad gardened with me when I was little. He 88 00:03:30,520 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 3: had a massive garden, and then my grandfather did it 89 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,840 Speaker 3: too as I got older, and that has been wonderful 90 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:39,240 Speaker 3: for me and Rosie. We garden every weekend, and gardening 91 00:03:39,280 --> 00:03:43,680 Speaker 3: teaches kids so many skills besides just loving nature and 92 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:47,680 Speaker 3: their food. It teaches you to be, you know, humble 93 00:03:47,960 --> 00:03:50,119 Speaker 3: and patient and things will work out. 94 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:54,480 Speaker 1: And garden, garden, garden, You've inspired me.

I've 171 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,919 Speaker 3: been reading about teenagers around the world and what parents do. 172 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:02,960 Speaker 3: And I'm really excited to try it because something I've 173 00:07:03,040 --> 00:07:08,000 Speaker 3: learned is that taking problems as like problems are like practice, 174 00:07:08,320 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 3: right every time there's a problem, it's a practice for something. 175 00:07:12,360 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 3: And so I'm trying not to shy away from problems 176 00:07:15,080 --> 00:07:17,880 Speaker 3: really like lean into them. 177 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 2: If you could go back to you as a young 178 00:07:20,680 --> 00:07:23,760 Speaker 2: mom having one of those really tough moments and being 179 00:07:23,800 --> 00:07:26,440 Speaker 2: so inexperienced, what advice would. 180 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:31,720 Speaker 3: You give yourself Start reading David Lancy's book about Parenting 181 00:07:31,800 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 3: and Childhood around the World, because once I started reading 182 00:07:34,480 --> 00:07:37,080 Speaker 3: that things, that's when I started opening my eyes. Oh. 183 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:40,280 Speaker 3: I would read my book. I read my book. I 184 00:07:40,360 --> 00:07:42,400 Speaker 3: read my book. You know. I used to read the 185 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:45,160 Speaker 3: inuite section like every couple of weeks because I was 186 00:07:45,200 --> 00:07:47,520 Speaker 3: so bad at being calm and patient and it would 187 00:07:47,520 --> 00:07:50,720 Speaker 3: help me like be calm and patient, and so I 188 00:07:50,760 --> 00:07:53,400 Speaker 3: had to read it over and over again in order 189 00:07:53,480 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 3: to learn it. So I would definitely read my book 190 00:07:55,880 --> 00:07:57,160 Speaker 3: and then David Lancy's book. 191 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,600 Speaker 2: So before I ask you the last question, i'd need 192 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:02,000 Speaker 2: to I need to just emphasize something. I'm just supposed 193 00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 2: to be a lightning around and this podcast supposed to 194 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,640 Speaker 2: be really short, but I have to say this, and Michael, 195 00:08:06,680 --> 00:08:09,240 Speaker 2: and this may I hope that you're okay with compliments. 196 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 2: I very rarely read parenting books. There's that whole diminishing returns. 197 00:08:13,200 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 2: I've read so much about parenting, and reading a parenting 198 00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:17,400 Speaker 2: book kind of feels like a waste of time for 199 00:08:17,440 --> 00:08:19,760 Speaker 2: me because I know most of what I'm going to 200 00:08:19,800 --> 00:08:22,880 Speaker 2: read in most books, and most people don't do parenting 201 00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:25,600 Speaker 2: books that they're not saying anything that's unique or new, 202 00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:28,040 Speaker 2: and quite often they're not even all that helpful. So 203 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:31,360 Speaker 2: I mean, obviously my books are an exception, but your book, 204 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 2: I know, if you could travel back in time and 205 00:08:33,160 --> 00:08:34,680 Speaker 2: talk to yourself as a young parent, you said that 206 00:08:34,679 --> 00:08:35,320 Speaker 2: you would give. 207 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: Your book to you. I would too. 208 00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,040 Speaker 2: Your book is a book that is now on my 209 00:08:40,160 --> 00:08:43,240 Speaker 2: list of books to give people because I loved it 210 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 2: so much, and that's something that I just I don't 211 00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:49,120 Speaker 2: say that about parenting books very often because they annoy 212 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,640 Speaker 2: me so much because so few people will say the 213 00:08:52,679 --> 00:08:54,640 Speaker 2: kinds of things that I'm saying in my books. But 214 00:08:54,720 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 2: what you've done is you've taken many of the ideas 215 00:08:56,920 --> 00:08:59,280 Speaker 2: that I have, and you've given them context in these 216 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,880 Speaker 2: different family in these different cultures, and you've made them 217 00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:04,719 Speaker 2: so practical. Hunt Gathered Parent is a book that I 218 00:09:04,800 --> 00:09:06,800 Speaker 2: would give to a young parent who was struggling in 219 00:09:06,840 --> 00:09:09,000 Speaker 2: those tough moments as well. I would say, read this, 220 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:13,839 Speaker 2: it's so helpful. That's a really big, van blatant advertisement 221 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 2: for your book, But I love Hunt Gathered Parent, So 222 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: thank you for what you've written. 223 00:09:17,840 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 3: Thank you so much. That means a lot to me. 224 00:09:19,960 --> 00:09:21,880 Speaker 2: The last question that I'm going to ask you, Michaelan, 225 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:24,600 Speaker 2: is what's your biggest win as a parent? 226 00:09:25,480 --> 00:09:28,000 Speaker 3: As a mom, I raised a kid who we were 227 00:09:28,000 --> 00:09:31,120 Speaker 3: at the pool today with a Rosie's friend and her 228 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 3: little brother, so not Rosie's little brother, the friend's brother, 229 00:09:34,480 --> 00:09:36,480 Speaker 3: and he was struggling. He was hanging on the side 230 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 3: and I could see that the sister was swimming away. 231 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 3: And Rosie went over there and started helping him and 232 00:09:42,679 --> 00:09:46,199 Speaker 3: started swimming with him. And I asked her, I said, 233 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:49,240 Speaker 3: what was happening? She said, well, the girl, little girl 234 00:09:49,320 --> 00:09:51,520 Speaker 3: was being mean to her brother, and I wanted to 235 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 3: help them. And you can't ask for more. Right, this 236 00:09:55,640 --> 00:09:58,280 Speaker 3: is to raise a kid that does that. I mean, 237 00:09:59,120 --> 00:10:01,120 Speaker 3: she might not go to a her but she's she 238 00:10:01,240 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 3: knows how to be kind to other people. That's what 239 00:10:04,400 --> 00:10:05,800 Speaker 3: brings us joy in our lives. 240 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:10,719 Speaker 2: Michaelandcliffe, the author of Hunt Gather Parent, thanks so much 241 00:10:10,720 --> 00:10:12,920 Speaker 2: for joining me for a Happy Families lightning around on 242 00:10:12,920 --> 00:10:13,920 Speaker 2: the Happy Families podcast. 243 00:10:14,720 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 3: Oh thank you for having me.
