I'm mainly looking for stuff like what to expect, how to raise a child, etc., but I'm open to other suggestions too. It doesn't have to be explicitly communist/leftist (although that would be nice lol), but at least stuff that is aligned with similar values.

I've seen Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn, and The Will to Change by bell hooks recommended on leftist parts of :reddit-logo:, and I've heard that Pedagogy of the Oppressed has some useful ideas in it too

    Any of Armin Brott's books are very good. It's mostly just straightforward and practical advice. I liked them because nearly every other book geared towards fathers assumes you are some incompetent sitcom dad and try to explain things to you like you're 14.

    Given how huge of a topic parenting is, there's a surprising dearth of good podcasts on it IMO.

      I'll check him out, thanks! Yeah I've seen individual episodes about parenting, but not whole podcasts unfortunately
