Description

Travis talks with political science professor (and mom!), Dr. Lindsey Cormack about her new book, How to Raise a Citizen (And Why It’s Up to You to Do It), in which she encourages parents to learn more about politics, civics, and government, and to take on a more active role in providing that education to their children.

Topics Travis and Lindsey cover include:


  • Key features and functions of American civics that parents need to know and to teach their children      

  • How to talk to kids about controversial or hot-topic issues in an age-appropriate way

  • Why schools have failed to provide this instruction to students and what they could do to improve
