Adri and Erin discuss the politics of child rearing in chapter 2 “The Vanishing Glass” of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone by J.K. Rowling. They talk about the social norms that surround parenting/child rearing, what kind of parents the Dursleys are, the differences of their treatment between Harry and Dudley, and dive deeper into child rearing expectations for non-biological children (does it really matter if the child is not your own and you never asked for him/her? Does this apply to unwanted pregnancies as well?).
This episode’s voicemail comes from Joan Ortiz. Episode 3 will discuss the politics of surveillance in chapter 3, “The Letters from No One,” of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone by J.K. Rowling.
