E404. Victimhood Destroyed An Entire Generation | Katharine Birbalsingh - Walk-Ins Welcome

Bridget Phetasy sits down with Katharine Birbalsingh — the founder of Michaela Community School and the woman known as Britain's strictest headmistress — to talk about how an entire generation grew up without values, and whose fault that actually is. Katharine makes the case that kids never abandoned their values; they were simply never taught them, because Gen X and Boomers took those values for granted and stopped leading. They get into why consistency in praise and punishment is everything, why you should praise the work and not the child, the case for choosing religion over woke when picking a school, and the smartphone fight — including why Katharine thinks parents who hand a toddler an iPad are handing them a manual for ruining their life. Plus: why you can't trust the school to teach your child anything, the trap of victimhood culture on both the left and the new right, and the importance of inoculating your kids against any ideology you don’t agree with before it reaches them.
