How Not to Raise a Serial Killer

How Not to Raise a Serial Killer is a compelling blend of true crime analysis and parenting psychology, hosted by criminal psychologist Dr. Michelle Ward. The podcast uniquely bridges the gap between the dark, clinical study of notorious offenders and the relatable, often taboo anxieties of modern parenthood. By examining the childhood traumas, neurological factors, and environmental triggers that contribute to criminal behavior, Dr. Ward provides listeners with both a forensic deep-dive and a cautionary guide on child development. The show features a distinctive conversational style, pairing expert psychological insight with the candid, vulnerable perspectives of non-expert parents. It is an essential listen for true crime enthusiasts who are also interested in the intersection of nature, nurture, and the complexities of raising healthy, well-adjusted children.
