On the Federalist Radio Hour, co-hosts David Harsanyi and Mollie Hemingway interview author and humor writer James Breakwell on his new book, “Bare Minimum Parenting: The Ultimate Guide to Not Quite Ruining Your Child.” They discuss how to turn your child into a functional adult without the stress or pressure manufactured by helicopter parents today.

“This book was a joke that turned out to be kind of true,” Breakwell said. “We act like every little thing we do is going to ruin our children. We have the safest world we’ve ever had and we some how act like it’s harder to be parent than ever before.”

Stick around for the third segment where Mollie and David discuss their recent music and television finds.
