myclippedwings Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Hi guys, This has always baffled me since Stef is big on he topic of peaceful parenting and did interviews with people like Robyn Peters Bennett and Elizabeth Gershoff to make the case for peaceful parenting. And although Alice Miller is deceased, I still think that Stef should make a video about her work as I believe that she has been one of the biggest peaceful parenting advocates before the internet age. And was practically all alone in her fight against child abuse and emotional repression. So I'm just a bit surprised why Stef hasn't shined at least a bit of the spotlight on her important work?
shirgall Posted September 9, 2016 Posted September 9, 2016 Besides the answer to the third caller of show 1452 you mean? It is interesting to not see more than that in a cursory search, but "peaceful" returns a ton of results.

It is interesting to not see more than that in a cursory search, but "peaceful" returns a ton of results. I never realised Stef did a podcast like 1452, I've listened to it and it seems that Stef knows quite a bit about AM as I thought he only read The Drama of The Gifted Child. I'll also see if there's anything else I can find if I do a "peaceful" search. I feel that people don't really look at her books besides the Drama, even though her later books go into far, far more depth into child abuse. Which is why I wished there was a bit more acknowledgement towards her later work or her work in general. As she was not just the writer of the Drama but a staunch peaceful parenting advocate in general. Podcast 1452 was quite good, but I just wish Stef would dedicate podcast highlighting her work.

But I forgot about the Mackler interviews, they were quite good, just that they only seemed to focus on just one of her books. 1
