About this listen
How can parents and educators help kids develop healthy relationships, navigate social media, and build self-control in a world designed to capture their attention? In this episode, Dr. Sharon Maxwell, clinical psychologist and author of The Talk, joins her daughter Chelsea Maxwell, an educator and learning designer, to discuss the challenges of raising kids in today’s digital, oversexualized culture—through a lens that aligns with Montessori principles of self-regulation, independence, and values-driven learning.
They share practical strategies for:
- Talking to kids about relationships, consent, and online influence
- Teaching self-reflection and self-control, core Montessori life skills
- Addressing the impact of social media on young minds
- Guiding kids toward a values-driven understanding of sex and intimacy
This conversation is essential listening for parents, educators, and anyone invested in helping the next generation develop autonomy, critical thinking, and confidence in today’s complex world.
