Ep 13: What’s Your Parenting Obsession?

About this episode

Elin discusses her passion for car safety and the differences in safety practices from her upbringing in Sweden to her experiences in traffic.

Car seats, bike helmets, and safety habits we grew up with. Elin shares why she’s so passionate about car safety, from growing up in Sweden (where safety is a big deal) to witnessing a serious car accident that completely changed how she thinks about kids in traffic. We also touch on the surprising differences in how safety is handled, from car seats to biking without helmets.
