On this episode: Elizabeth Newcamp, Zak Rosen, and Lucy Lopez answer a question from the Slate Parenting Facebook group… wondering what counts as a good grade, and what the consequences should be at home for bad grades. We come in hot with a dismissal of the whole premise. It’s great. We’ll also share a round of recommendations — and then, if you’re in the Slate Plus club, we’re assembling our own <a href="https://lithub.com/the-toddler-book-tolerability-index/">toddler book tolerability index</a>.Recommendations: Elizabeth recommends: <a href="https://radiolab.org/podcast/zoozve"> This episode of Radio Lab: Zoozve</a>Lucy recommends:<a href="https://www.amazon.com/What-Bread-Says-Baking-History/dp/1735345180"> What The Bread Says by Vanessa Garcia</a>Zak recommends:<a href="https://open.spotify.com/album/78Gn38gj9qMCUO3lRXka4C"> A Light in the Attic read by Shel Silverstein</a>Join us on Facebook and email us at careandfeedingpod@slate.com to ask us new questions, tell us what you thought of today’s show, and give us ideas about what we should talk about in future episodes.
