History of Twin Oaks and the Benefits of Communal Childcare
The history of Twin Oaks is traced back to 1967, when Kat Kincaid founded it based on B.F. Skinner’s book *Walden Two*. The guests describe the community's evolution from behaviorist roots to a successful commune supported by hammock and tofu businesses. They also highlight the advantages of communal childcare, where raising children is considered creditable labor, allowing parents to spend more time with their kids in an extended family environment.
