  22. Respecting and Leveraging the Power of Boredom (Professor & Mrs. Jones Part 2)

  Aug 17, 202622 minS1

  Many parents fears their child getting bored. We sign them up for lots of activities, sports and other lessons so they don't get bored. And when they plead boredom when they're at home with nothing to do, we often cave and let them watch screens. "After all, they've been so busy and learning so much," we might justify to ourselves. In part two of our conversation with Claire and Stephen, they share the incredible things that can come from allowing our kids to have free time and letting them be bored, when we don't swoop in to rescue them and they have access to the outdoors, books, and other grown-up spaces and tools.

  21. Raising Pigs and the 3 Pillars That Support Self-Directed Learners (with Professor & Mrs. Jones)

  Aug 10, 202645 minS1

  One of Stephen and Claire Jones's primary goals for their children is that they learn autodidact skills to become lifelong self-directed learners. In this episode they share four pillars that support this goal: great stories, fostering relationships, weekly mentor meetings, and the right guardrails. Stephen is a professor in the business school at the University of Washington, Bothell campus. He teaches strategy and entrepreneurship, and does research on teams, trust, cooperation and conflict. Claire has homeschooled all seven of her children, ranging in age from 24 to nine. She is the outgoing president of Leadership Education Academy for Families, which serves 30 families in the Snohomish, WA, area, where she developed much of the scholar program.
