Christian Dashiell

The bulk of my work focuses on parenting, science, and developmental psychology. But pop culture, outdoor cooking, comedy, and sports all fill my personal time and round out my writing portfolio, which can be found at www.ChristianDashiell.com.

I also co-host Richmond Til We Die: A Ted Lasso Podcast, which is the most (and highest) reviewed Ted Lasso pod on both Apple and Spotify.

I grew up in Portland, OR but currently live in Kansas with my wife and our four kids four children, where we advocate for fellow adoptive, foster, and multiethnic families in our community.

  • This Is How Parents Decide Whether or Not To Keep Their Sick Kid Home From School
    11 Apr 2024—Parents
    A new poll sheds light on how parents navigate their child’s need for a sick day.
