Care and Feeding | Slate’s parenting show

Playdate Etiquette Edition

47 min • 3 september 2021

On this week’s episode: Elizabeth and Aymann discuss their triumphs and fails for the week. Then they answer a question from a listener who feels she’s being borderline ghosted by other parents after their children’s playdates. 

Later, they have some advice for a parent whose 12 year old son is very set in his views as they pertain to religion but his mom worries that this may cause problems down the line for one of his new friendships. How can she help her son navigate this potential conflict? 


In Slate Plus: Free-range parenting: what is it and is it for you?
