In this 30-minute episode, Saren interviews her father, New York Times #1 Bestselling Author Richard Eyre, about his latest book, The Turning: Why The State of the Family Matters and What the World Can Do About It
Some of the main points addressed in this interview:
- There are many outside forces undermining strong families in today’s world (policies, work requirements, etc.)
- Many people don’t understand the joy and importance of family life; marriages are dwindling and many are choosing not to have children
- Strong, committed families can help popularize and encourage others to desire and create strong families through social media and through their positive examples to those around them
- Parents are the largest but often the most silent special interest group; They could do much more to encourage family-friendly policies and practices in larger institutions.
