We are joined by David Thomas. David has authored the book, Are My Kids on Track?: The 12 Emotional, Social, and Spiritual Milestones Your Child Needs to Reach, and he explains why he chose to write this book and focus on this different perspective of milestones. David describes the impact of other quantifiable milestones taking precedent over the emotional, social, and spiritual milestones. He also shows what is reasonable to expect from children whose parents are not on track in these areas. David provides what milestones he feels culture is getting better at and what he sees as concerning. David guides parents to be able to have goals for their children outside of what society says is important to measure.
