Barbara Coloroso: Why Your Parenting Style Might Be Hurting Your Kids [The Knowledge Project Ep. #44]

Barbara Coloroso, legendary educator and author of Kids Are Worth It, explains why your parenting strategies could be making things worse. She dismantles common discipline tactics—like rewards and punishments—and shows why traditional methods sabotage your child’s ability to think, act ethically, and stand up for others.

This episode will transform your parenting from a power struggle into a powerful partnership. If you care about raising resilient, ethical, and genuinely responsible kids, listen closely—you might need this more than they do.
