With insights drawn from Goodhart's latest book, "The Care Dilemma: Caring Enough in the Age of Sex Equality," this conversation tackles undervalued roles in society, the recruitment crisis in social care, and the evolving political landscape. In the discussion we covered: - The undervaluation of parenting and caregiving roles in modern society. - Strategies to address the recruitment crisis in social care. - The challenges of modern parenting and the fertility gap. - The impact of family instability on socioeconomic factors and youth mental health. - The overproduction of low-level academics and the shortage of skilled workers.
