Episode 272: Talking to Our Kids About the Cornell Case

29m | Oct 13, 2026

The recent case out of Cornell has brought up some really hard conversations for parents of teens and college students.

Dr. Ken and Cynthia talk about whether parents should bring cases like this up with their kids, how much detail is appropriate, and how to talk about alcohol, consent, and safety without turning it into a giant lecture.

They also get into the importance of teaching our kids to step in when something isn’t right—even if it means calling an adult, upsetting a friend, or being the unpopular one in the room.

It’s a heavy topic, but also one that opens the door to some necessary conversations.
