Patagonia Launches ‘Parenting: Disaster Style' Short Film Series: Watch the First Episode
Zoe Hart and her husband, Maxime Turgeon, have endured a lot since they met. The two alpinists have summited extremely tall and technical peaks, spent long, cold nights on the sides of mountain cliffs, and traveled the world in search of alpine adventure. For a long time, they've practiced what they jokingly call 'disaster style alpinism.'
Now, they're learning disaster-style parenting. And Patagonia is making a short film series about it.
The first episode of Patagonia's Parenting: Disaster Style dropped on YouTube on June 18. It follows the Hart–Turgeons as they show their kids, Mathias and Mika, the ropes of adventure. And their lessons go beyond the crag — they're hoping to raise their children with the same love for the mountain adventure that brought them together in the first place.
Check out Patagonia's YouTube channel for subsequent episodes of Parenting: Disaster Style in the coming weeks.

Miley Cyrus Has Some Very Different (And Very Literal) Takes on French Girl Chic
Miley Cyrus has been lighting up Paris with look after look. 'Paris is already something beautiful, but with all of you it's even more magical. Je t'aime,' the singer wrote on Instagram. Taking her latest album title—Something Beautiful—and its continuing promo tour seriously with her sartorial choices, Cyrus and her stylist Bradley Kenneth have been having a lot of fun with combining her own sense of style—maximalist but refined, '70s inflected aesthetics with modern, sexy twists by way of strong-shouldered Saint Laurent jackets and suiting, Alaïa gowns, and lots of leather—with some French girl chic details. Yesterday evening, Cyrus was photographed leaving her Paris hotel, continuing her vintage rhythm. She wore a sweeping sheer gray blue sheer gown with an undulating layered skirt and a peacock feathered, spiral coned bra. She paired it with long leather gloves, and chocolate brown cut-out sandal boots. As usual, her hair was blown out in dramatic, heightened '80s curls. Photo: Backgrid On another occasion, Cyrus greeted fans in a more low-key but still chic and sleek black strapless top with a leather bow on the chest, with matching tailored black pants and black pointed boots. The monochromatic look gained a pop of color from a bright bouquet of flowers she received from fans. Cyrus was also spotted wearing an Eiffel Tower motif rhinestone-studded archival black dress by the late designer Patrick Kelly—the first U.S. designer inducted into France's Chambre Syndicale du Prêt-à-Porter back in 1988—which featured in his fall winter 1989 collection. Cyrus added some dark angular oval sunglasses, sheer tights, and pointed black stilettos with a delicate ankle strap.

Kid Convinces Mom to Buy Her A Cookie — Why This Top Therapist Loves the Interaction
Authoritarian parenting is increasingly falling out of favor, and Dr. John Gottman, a renowned psychologist and leading researcher on relationships, welcomes the change. Recently, Gottman came across a TikTok video in which a mother orders a coffee at a drive-thru. When her young daughter asks for a cookie, she's told, 'We have cookies at home.' Without missing a beat, the girl replies, 'Well, we have coffee at home.' Her logic is sound, and she gets the cookie. Though the moment, captured by content creator Charles Trippy, was staged, with similar clips circulating online for years, it doesn't change Gottman's takeaway. He hopes more parents will see interactions like this, not as chances to assert control, but as opportunities to help their children feel seen and heard. 'Instead of responding with, 'You can't have a cookie because I said so,' they reinforced her for being logical,' Gottman tells 'And it makes me very happy to see that.' One of the key goals of parenting. Gottman suggests, is to raise kids who can think independently and aren't blindly obedient to authority. Ideally, they grow into thoughtful citizens, people who, when faced with power or pressure, can evaluate what's being asked of them and respond critically. 'We want kids who say, 'I don't agree with this, and here's why,'' Gottman explains. He believes that's especially important when raising girls, noting that self-assured women are less likely to end up in controlling or unhealthy relationships. Gottman and his wife, Dr. Julie Schwartz Gottman, co-founders of the Gottman Institute in Washington State, are the parents of a 34-year-old daughter, Moriah, who recently graduated from medical school. Gottman recalls a time when Moriah, a talented jazz singer, was dating a man who didn't want her to perform in public. She ended the romance, a firm, empowered decision that he says made him 'incredibly proud.' 'You want a daughter who can stand up for herself, someone who knows her worth and doesn't tolerate being told what she can or can't do,' he says. 'We don't want to raise compliant, passive children — boys or girls —because they won't grow up believing in themselves.' This article was originally published on
