“These guys are NOT Neuroscientists and are misguiding parents as they spread non scientific information about the brain on this podcast. Michael Gurian is a therapist who believes in “hardwired” gender differences in the brain and makes several biases comments such as “girls learn math different”. He also only makes reference to his own books throughout the season, showing there is lack of evidence elsewhere to support his view.
Parents, please read the research from neuroscientists:
Lise Eliot on how brains are shaped by learning and practice and
Daniel Siegel (author of The Whole Brain Child) about how to use neuroplasticity to nurture and develop the mind of our kids.
Our kids deserve better from us!!”
