In The Game Theorist’s Guide to Parenting, the award-winning journalist and father of five Paul Raeburn and the game theorist Kevin Zollman pair up to highlight tactics from the worlds of economics and business that can help parents break the endless cycle of quarrels and ineffective solutions. Raeburn and Zollman show that some of the same strategies successfully applied to big business deals and politics?such as the Prisoner’s Dilemma and the Ultimatum Game?can be used to solve such titanic, age-old parenting problems as dividing up toys, keeping the peace on long car rides, and sticking to homework routines. Raeburn and Zollman open each chapter with a common parenting dilemma. Then they show how carefully concocted schemes involving bargains and fair incentives can save the day. Through smart case studies of game theory in action, Raeburn and Zollman reveal how parents and children devise strategies, where those strategies go wrong, and what we can do to help raise happy and savvy kids while keeping the rest of the family happy too.

Paul Raeburn and Kevin Zollman achieve two incredible feats in The Game Theorist's Guide to Parenting: they helped me find a way to be fair and just in my parenting while teaching me the basics of game theory. Even game theorists will marvel at Raeburn and Zollman's ability to elucidate deep ideas and turn them into practical rules of thumb for raising children.His articles have appeared in Discover, The Huffington Post, The New York Times Magazine, Scientific American, and Psychology Today, among many others. He lives in New York City. Kevin Zollman is a game theorist and an associate professor of philosophy at Carnegie Mellon University. His work has been covered in The Wall Street Journal, The New Yorker, Scientific American, and elsewhere. Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

As every parent knows, kids are surprisingly clever negotiators.

It's pretty adverserial. Not surprising I guess, given the subject matter. I guess what I learned from this book is that I really do want a relationship with my kids that's about more than rewards and punishments, rules and strategies, bluffing and calling bluffs. I want a relationship that's not about winners and losers. I would not want to be raised this way. It does get into the value of empathy and altruism in game theory terms toward the end. But I kind of think those should be the whole point of a parenting book, that they should be factored into every scenario here. The explanations also touch lightly, but thoughtfully, on topics ranging from behavioral economics to the evolution of morality.The book delivers on its promise of outlining strategies to help kids pitch in with chores, do their homework, tell the truth and share, among other behaviors crucial to a smoothly running household.

The strategies are not necessarily new (for example, the you-split-I-choose method of apportioning goodies among competing kids), but many useful ones will be unfamiliar to readers and ripe for use at home (for example, having kids participate in auctions for something they want—auctions in which they compete by bidding chores they are willing to do in return). The game theory concepts and math underlying the strategies are explained generally—and often humorously (the authors are very obviously parents of devious children, which is to say, parents of children)—and with plenty of examples of how they work in everyday life. But this is a surprisingly readable little book, with some very real-life examples that you don't have to be a parent to appreciate: you just have to have been a kid. It does make family relationships seem highly adversarial, but the focus is on conflict and disagreements, and isn't meant to be a comprehensive parenting guide. Make them love you so much that when they're up against you, their own loyalty will act against their own self-interests. That's game theory. A cold rational focus on winning, even if it's at everyone else's expense.In true game theory, everyone is a contingency. You meet people, you bring them into your life, you keep them percolating until the moment you need to manipulate the relationship to y. Be everyone's friend 'til the moment you're not. Make them love you so much that when they're up against you, their own loyalty will act against their own self-interests. That's game theory. A cold rational focus on winning, even if it's at everyone else's expense.In true game theory, everyone is a contingency. After all, the definition came from the antagonist of the series; one can not expect a positive outlook on it. Further events in the series, confirms that there are ways to use Game theory for greater good. Definitely Scoffield was not a creep who practices Game theory. A series worth binge-watching! Okay. That's the story of how I got introduced to Game theory. Let us see what this book says about Game theory. It’s about being smart in dealings with other people—understanding how people are likely to behave, and devising a strategy that will produce the outcome we’re looking for. We’re talking about evidence-based parenting. Not fads, not guesses, not tricks. In the best of circumstances, you will create a win-win situation. Not only will you reduce conflict and encourage your children to do what they should, you will also be teaching them strategies for solving problems they will face long after leaving the family and starting out on their own. Game theory works. Few of them are interesting to understand the theories better; sometimes I felt bit boring though. Parents with more than one child would benefit a lot from this book I guess; In many places, there are tips and tricks to handle sibling conflicts. Tips which would teach the kids what is fairness and why does it matter. Even without reading this book or knowing what is a game theory about, parents might be practicing it for ages; just like my parents did, but a book like this would be handier and help us to be a better parent. To sum it up, Our kids are nice. They’re very responsive to the messages we’re sending. They’re not just selfish machines; even though they are not born with fairness. They’re built to care for other people. It takes time for them to understand what is fairness, why they will have a better life if they act as moral people, because the short-term costs of being a moral person, of not being selfish, have long-term benefits. Game theory can help us in this process, to understand why it can make sense to share, to be honest, and to cooperate. We can play the Ultimatum Game, the Prisoner’s Dilemma, envy free dicision, giving credible threats and other game-theory games for years with our children before they face the real world. Game theory can help us know why our kids behave the way they do. And it shows us what we can do to ease tensions in our family and to teach our kids some of the notions of fairness, generosity, and sharing that make them “nice,” Finally, A good game theorist always knows the limitations of each strategy. If the odds are high that these limitations don't give win-win solution, we are left with the last most disappointing, way nature deals with parenting: Just live with it. A good read! My first real introduction to game theory. It was fun to approach common parenting situations from this perspective, although I should note that ideally most of these would be better replaced by general compassion and empathy. But kids are kids and often need some help in that area, so these ideas could be helpful. I don't know who much I'll actually use though. Some random takeaways: - Where possible, frame punishments in terms My first real introduction to game theory.

But kids are kids and often need some help in that area, so these ideas could be helpful. I don't know who much I'll actually use though. Some random takeaways: - Where possible, frame punishments in terms of rewards. - Don't make threats or promises you aren't willing to carry through. - I cut, you pick is an easy way to divide something everyone wants, although this gets trickier when more people are involved. - Be careful with how you set up incentives. Impossible goals lead to lower self-esteem or cutting corners, while too easy goals may incentivize laziness. - Try to set up self-enforcing agreements that kids will want to keep.

However, the last third really introduced some new ideas. I've implemented a couple already, and I'm seeing a difference. Zippy writing and a positive, upbeat style make a challenging topic lucid enough for the layman. This uses some of the classical tactics of game theory including prisoners dilemma and Nash Equilibrium to describe some of the possible outcomes.

The basics of game theory such as I cut you pick are covered early on for those where two siblings are present as a way to forestall sibling arguments and a website is provided for more complicated games involving more than 2 kids ( www.spliddit.org ) although the real lesson is that more than 2 is guaranteed to increase the number of sibling arguments as anyone who has tried to run a game theory experiment with more than two players will know. The book moves on to other simple games such as bidding for privileges with something such as points or chores that are allotted in an equal manner to each participant. The book moves on to the concept of fairness and value with the understanding of the participants (ie kids point of view) and valuing relative gains amongst children. The idea is for a Patero equilibrium to be established but it should be noted that fairness takes time to develop and will not be readily apparent in very young children since understanding fairness also means understanding empathy. The book also covers the idea of punishments and maintain consistency and repetition as most parents book do but goes into why this maters from a game theory perspective. It should be noted that when evaluating punishments an awareness of what your child can perceive about future value weighs into whether or not the punishment will be effective. This goes into the habits of moral hazard (lying) when dealing with children and them not understanding the lost value of not being truthful or understanding reputation. Finally the book ends on family dynamics with a look at how families make decisions and the hazards of voting. If using more than 2 options the Borda count is one way to address the inequities of voting on a single option and the strategic voting option needs to be guarded against to ensure the optimal outcomes for each player of the game. Overall for the math and econ nerds this is a great read and covers game theory in a straightforward and simple manner for those who have not heard of it before. It is very enjoyable and a quick read! The strategies shared are intelligent and based in research (but of course, game theory) but it will require lots more work to consider how to actually apply them holistically in households like mine, with irrational 4- and 2-year-olds whose energy levels are often indirectly proportionate to mine. High-stressed, desperate parents seeking instant panacea t The strategies shared are intelligent and based in research (but of course, game theory) but it will require lots more work to consider how to actually apply them holistically in households like mine, with irrational 4- and 2-year-olds whose energy levels are often indirectly proportionate to mine. High-stressed, desperate parents seeking instant panacea to their child-rearing woes (think 1-min microwaveable mush) may possibly be in for more than a little disappointment. Still, the authors understand that parents, just like children, need all the extra bit of help they can get. As a bonus, they have included a little summary box at the end of the chapters that sums up practical reminders and tactics. Surprised myself by how much I enjoyed it, even as I understand the limited applicability for the day-to-day. The brand of humour (the specific kind that really only belongs to economists, mathematicians) sits very well with me too, making the book a much welcomed source of entertainment. When the writers outline practical applications for their theories they give good real-life examples. The summary at the end of each chapter is also a good idea. On the other hand the book is aimed at parents with more than one kid. Although there are practical examples for how to apply game theory there aren't that many compared to the pages and pages you read about game theory.

The writers include personal jokes or stories about themselves, but after a while the pally-ness starts to get a bit much. Although the ideas can be applied universally the book is pretty USA-centric. Any place names or university names are American. It would have been good to have some other places. Overall, worth the read. By focusing it on parenting scenarios, the authors have made it easier to understand. Its still not that helpful for parenting. The crucial flaw, like most books of this kind, is that it assumes a child is a rational being. Even after they admit children can be spiteful and take that into account, they still fail to understand the sheer level of irrationality children can possess.

They take pains to never, ever be specific about any of the math or to have any equation, anywhere. I was expecting the result of trying to steer between a parenting how-to and a game theory explainer to be a mushy disaster, but they pulled it off pretty well.

What was driving me crazy - many examples included two children, many theories were amazing - again - for two children, but what if I don’t have two, how I should use it.

It is a good introduction to game theory concepts because of the application of those concepts and the intuitive clarity of the book. Worth a read, especially for parents and teachers. As a parent it also gives you interesting insight in how to teach kids how to settle disputes with siblings etc. While explaining the theory in easy way, no much focus on practice and how to apply in real life on your kids.
