We're now 1+ year into our international sociological experiment of spending every waking minute with our loved ones, and things are going JUST FINE. But real talk: if you're having days where you want to leave your kids in the middle of a forest with nothing but a pocketful of breadcrumbs - or baloney, if you're Shannon - you're totally not alone. Your beloved hosts talk parenting during a pandemic, and share what it's like raising "difficult" kids, being judged as a bad parent, how kids are not an extension of yourself to be molded to your ideals, and how to pick your battles as you get to know your children reaaaalll well during quarantine. Shit's hard atm, friends, and if your child is acting out in unusual ways, there's likely more to it than just a simple temper tantrum. When Elisha's 7-year-old starts to display some negative behaviors, she pivots on her approach with him, and significantly alters the home dynamic by listening to his needs and restructuring his day. Shannon is determined to always be real with her kids, apologizing to them when needed, and ensuring they get the unconditional love and respect that she never had, growing up. Every child is different, and we cannot even imagine what they're going through right now. If you're struggling with your kids or feeling like a "bad parent," reach out to us - we'd love to hear from you, and we're here to help, as always.
