It can be challenging to know when, where, how, and how much independence to give your kids. Every parent grapples with a balance of freedom and limits.
Aaron Stupple takes a different approach: radical freedom. When it comes to food, screens, bedtimes, school, and more, Aaron lets his children call their own shots.
Come join us for a fireside chat. Aaron discusses his parenting and his recent book, The Sovereign Child, with Matt Bateman of Montessorium, an elementary program that aims at fostering agency. What’s the case for giving children maximal freedom? How does it work? What is there to learn from Aaron’s approach, even for parents -- like Matt -- who set more limits?
Join two of the brightest minds in parenting, Aaron Stupple and Matt Bateman, for a lively discussion of freedom, independence, and agency in childhood.
