@darbysaxbe @NYT Wow! Sensational article by @darbysaxbe in the @NYT. "...public spaces, especially in the United States, seem to have become more hostile to the presence of children."

[Darby Saxbe @darbysaxbe]

As a champion ignorer of my own kids and an enemy of programmed childhood "fun," I wrote a piece for @NYT on why underparenting can reduce parental stress and boost kids' resilience. Down with fun, up with boredom! https://t.co/Q3V4pdI9M2

@thekatestewart @AcademicChatter In Las Vegas, went door-to-door seeking customers who wanted their palm trees cut, climbed trees, and cut them. Bundled palm fronds and placed them at the curb for trash pickup, all in 110+ degrees.

It’s a funny thing about the truth. No matter how hard powerful institutions and people try to manipulate it, it stays the same. Truth is something that cannot be changed. A thread. #MackenzieFierceton https://t.co/ugjjf0Ndya
