NEW from me in @pnas.org on the risks of data sharing with qualitative research: "Today, confidentiality risks are amplified by social media, surveillance, and AI tools, which make ample data about people publicly available, thus making deidentification less effective" www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Remember: The recipe for economic growth isn’t tax cuts for the rich. It’s investment in our people — in health care, infrastructure and education — to build a strong middle class. You don't grow the economy through trickle-down nonsense.

I recently spoke with FreshEd about the argument at the heart of my new book, #TheTimeInheritors: inequality is not only about what people have, but also about when they have it. I also argue that support measures can reproduce inequality. @sunypress.bsky.social freshedpodcast.com/xu/?trk=feed...

As I continue thinking about asset-based parent engagement, I think it's timely to reshare this older piece on plurilingual parenting - having more than one language in the repertoire is not a deficit but strength and should be viewed as such! theconversation.com/plurilingual...

A real mishmash of research, factoids and blatant prejudice. A report about how families bring up their children without asking a single family for their view. observer.co.uk/news/nationa...

And a bugbear for me - a student has another language rather than English as their first language? CELEBRATE the multilingual ability. That student can think thoughts that can't be thought in English - because we don't have a word for some things that other languages do have words for.

Not everyone gets to be “relaxed.” For some, ease is not a trait but a privilege. In this podcast episode, I talk about time inheritance, time poverty, gendered burdens, and why some people inherit margin while others inherit urgency. A lot of what looks personal is structural.

Our webinar on outsourced concerted cultivation as one of parenting strategies among middle-class parents in China is coming up in one week. You can still register here lnkd.in/eGuHgTcw @csa-scs.bsky.social
