Since the death of George Floyd, there has been a big push, particularly in blue cities, to defund the police. That push has now extended into the public school system, where—in light of much opposition—city councils are cutting SRO budgets and, quite literally, taking the security and safety out of schools.

]]> On this episode of the Bespoke Parenting Hour Podcast, host Julie Gunlock speaks with Laura Carno, IWF senior fellow and founder and executive director of FASTER Colorado—an organization that trains armed K-12 school staff—about the consequences of removing school resource officers (SROs) from public schools. Since the death of George Floyd, there has been a big push, particularly in blue cities, to defund the police. That push has now extended into the public school system, where—in light of much opposition—city councils are cutting SRO budgets and, quite literally, taking the security and safety out of schools.

Julie and Erika (both moms of three school-aged boys) talk about what Erika calls "the boy crisis in American schools" and the very grim statistics that show boys are falling behind both in school and life. In addition, they discuss why it's become acceptable (even fashionable) in American culture to disparage boys and men and why terms like "the future is female '' and "girls rule" creates an unhelpful (and weird!) "us against them" way of thinking that harms both sexes and creates unnecessary hostility. Julie and Erika also discuss what Erika says is the "narrative that boys are inherently bad or broken" and the media-driven generalizations about boys and men, which suggest they are "unworthy, expendable and deserving of scorn ... just for being male." Tune in!

Notkin and Julie discuss a wide range of issues—from David Brooks' essay on the nuclear family, the important role non-parents have in children's lives to the many myths and assumptions the public has about childless women, and why the more inclusive and understanding parents are of non-parents, the happier parents and children are overall! In addition, Notkin offers parents some good tips on how to honor the extended family members in their lives. Tune in!
