Effective Parenting: The Evolution of Understanding (feat. Jon Fogel)
Manage episode 365424550 series 3338949
In EPISODE 68 of The Therapy4Dads Podcast, Jon Fogel, parenting educator (@wholeparent), discusses the myths surrounding traditional parenting and the need for effective parenting education. He delves into his personal journey and various experiences, including his training in trauma-informed care and child development and his view on codependency and emotional regulation. Jon also emphasizes the importance of individualized approaches to parenting and how previous generations' lack of access to knowledge affected their parenting practices. The focus is on education rather than punishment and understanding behavior as a symptom of a deeper issue. Join host Travis Goodman and guest Jon Fogel on this enlightening episode about parenting beyond the myths.
Jon Fogel is a parenting expert who found his calling through personal experience. After becoming a parent himself, Jon realized that there was a fundamental dissonance in the way he was parenting versus the counseling techniques he was studying. He devoured books on child development, trauma-informed care, and psychology. As a licensed foster parent, Jon also received training from the state which further informed his techniques. When his friends started seeking advice for their parenting struggles, Jon's detailed responses earned him the title of parenting expert. He began sharing his knowledge on social media and quickly gained popularity because his techniques worked and he was a rare male voice in the parenting space. Jon is now an expert in anti-punishment techniques and firmly believes that parenting can be done more effectively and compassionately.
