Saying Goodbye To The Kojo Nnamdi Show
On this last episode, we look back on 23 years of joyous, difficult and always informative conversation.
A Silver Spring couple is in the news again for letting their children walk home alone from the park — a decision they attribute to their “free-range parenting” philosophy. But parents living on the brink of poverty often make similar decisions for very different, economic reasons. We explore how societal norms and laws on child neglect affect the choices facing poor parents who can’t afford child care.
