About this listen

Praised by Newsweek as a "compelling read" and Library Journal as "accessible and down-to-earth", Dale McGowan’s Parenting Beyond Belief offered freethinking parents everywhere a compassionate introduction to raising caring, ethical children without religious guidance. Now, for the more than 40 million people in the United States who identify themselves as nonreligious, Raising Freethinkers offers solutions to the unique challenges secular parents face and provides specific answers to common questions, as well as over 100 activities for both parents and their children. This book covers every important topic nonreligious parents need to know to help their children with their own moral and intellectual development, including advice on religious-extended-family issues, death and life, secular celebrations, wondering and questioning, and more.

Complete with reviews of books, DVDs, curricula, educational toys, and online resources relevant to each chapter topic, Raising Freethinkers helps parents raise their children with confidence.

Disappointing. Very Biased

For a book that claims to be about free thinking this book is riddled with intersectionalit’s theory and Marxist and socialist notions of the family unit, gender, race and identity. While the author is claiming to be critical of fundamentalist religion, she is obviously so steeped in theories about intersectionality that she was unable to come from a neutral stance.

I understand her point of view, but anything this riddled with agendas shouldn’t be claiming to be a source of free thinking. It came across as just another religion called anti religion. Very distracting. Couldn’t finish it.
