Childhood in America today is often troubled. Children are experiencing mental health crises, suicidal ideation, educational underperformance, social discord, sexualization at young ages, and unprecedented social challenges.

What to do? Wesley’s guest on this episode of Humanize, Katy Faust, has invested years of her life to solving the crisis of contemporary childhood. Faust believes the time has come to put children first. In this day and age, that’s not as easy as it may sound, as she clearly describes.

Faust is editor of the new book, Pro-Child Politics, which tackles contentious issues such as masculinity, femininity, pornography, gender ideology, education, race, and taxes as they impact children.

She is Founder and President of Them Before Us, a global movement defending children’s right to their mother and father. She publishes, speaks, and testifies widely on why marriage and family are matters of justice for children. Her articles have appeared in Newsweek, USA Today, The Federalist, Public Discourse, WORLD Magazine, The Daily Signal, and the Washington Examiner. She is on the advisory board of the Alliance for Responsible Citizenship.

Faust helped design the teen edition of CanaVox which studies sex, marriage, and relationships from a natural law perspective. She co-authored Raising Conservative Kids in a Woke City and Them Before Us: Why We Need a Global Children’s Rights Movement. She is a public speaker and host of the Them Before Us Podcast. She and her husband are raising their four children in Seattle.
