  • Summary

  • In this episode, Dr. Fraad discusses the history of childhood. To quote the most well-known historian of childhood, Lloyd deMause, "The history of childhood is a nightmare from which we have only begun to awaken." We all begin life as children. Our history must be claimed. Feudalism and capitalism cast children as private property to use, abuse, exploit, or love. This podcast explores our common history through a Marxist lens. In case we need the footnote it follows: Lloyd deMause The History of Childhood. Psychohistory Press, New York. 1974
