How do you know when you’re ready to be a parent? How do you forgive when you’ve been hurt permanently?

Licensed therapist Jonathan Decker and filmmaker Alan Seawright are reacting to Jonathan’s favorite film of 2024, The Wild Robot! They’re taking a look at the “programming” of parenting and humanity. Jonathan talks about the challenges and rewards of parenting and how much it changes a person. Alan talks about the immense power of storytelling, and he explains why this may be the best Dreamworks film yet!
