Thinking AllowedParentingParenting - Laurie Taylor explores its cultural history and the shift towards intensive parenting. Andrew Bomback, Associate Professor of Medicine at Columbia University Irving Medical Center, investigates the emergence of an immersive, all-in approach to raising children that has made parenting a competitive sport. Drawing on “how-to” parenting books and historical accounts of parental duties he charts the way in which being a parent became a skill to be mastered. They're joined by Benedetta Cappellini, who considers the impact of these social transformations on Grandmothers.Producer: Jayne Egerton

Give and TakeEpisode 134: Doctor, with Andrew BombackMy guest is Andrew Bomback. His new book is Doctor. It begins with a 3-year-old who asks her physician father about his job, and his inability to provide a succinct and accurate answer inspires a critical look at the profession of modern medicine.
