The World in a Weekend

This chapter of Bluey Bros discusses episode 1:6, The Weekend. We explore parental privacy in the bathroom, how children’s development of concepts is explained by schema theory, Emmanuel Levinas’s and Martin Buber’s notions of face-to-face and I-You encounters, the role that awe plays in fostering our sense of well-being and the resilience of humanity even in the face of the most difficult circumstances, and the role of playing the straight-man and the fool can help foster relationships with our kids.
