The Economics Show

The Economics of Parenting, with Emily Oster

Emily Oster is a professor of economics at Brown University, but she is probably best known as the author of the bestsellers 'Expecting Better' and 'Cribsheet', which crunch the research about the often gut-driven practice of parenting. Today on the show we talk about research, process and the many myths about raising children. Oster hosts the ParentData <a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/parentdata-with-emily-oster/id1633515294" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">podcast</a> and publishes the <a href="https://parentdata.org/subscribe/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">weekly ParentData newsletter</a>.
