This is a short one. We discuss an issue at Go’s school that made him feel singled out as a secular kid. And then we talk about how we’d both like to be more involved in our community, but we’re tired. But maybe we won’t be soon. I think this is the great myth of adulthood - that there will be some time when we’re not exhausted and stretched thin. So you just have to do the things anyway.

The Family Skeptical: We’re a married atheist couple raising two wonderful, strange children. We ask big questions, dissect weird parenting moments, and examine how society ignores or misrepresents families like ours. If you’re any stripe of non-believer who’s involved in raising children, welcome! You are our people.

Our kids are Reader (11) and Go (8), and if you want to find out how we arrived at these peculiar pseudonyms, go back to Episode 1.
