Do you know when the programs you listened to were from? The early 90's ones were a lot more punitive, but there was a shift that happened in the writing later on that I appreciated.

I didn't necessarily agree with everything in the episodes, but punitive parenting was not at the forefront of the programs in my memory. My kids really enjoyed them and if there was something that didn't fit within our family philosophy it didn't seem to be something they noticed.

In terms of 'not dark' stories...it's hard for me to think of ones that are less intense than Odyssey (we do a lot of audio books). One of my critiques of Odyssey is that it's a bit too sanitized/sacharrine in how it deals with issues.
Ill have to check and see when these ones were written. (They are in the car and its storming out. ) Maybe I just got a couple bad ones? Do you know of any episodes in partcular that were pleasant?



Ill look into the Molly of Denali podcast. Not eveything we listen to is Christian.
