It's Raun's Birthday!!

Originally Aired Mon, 01/16/2012 - 2:00pm

How is Raun’s birthday relevant to your life? Tune in and see! The hosts discuss the importance of not buying into pessimistic predictions about what our children will not accomplish as they get older. An optimistic vision – along with some inspiring stories – is given, bringing to light the fact that our brains remain plastic throughout our lives. Raun and Kristin also argue over whether birthdays are good or bad, invent products to help us poop and shave (yup, you read that right), and celebrate our kids. Kristin gives some unorthodox but helpful uses for vegetable oil, and Raun speaks out against people condemning our children to life sentences.
