Ep 804 | My Mom on Mothering Toddlers, Teens & Adults | Guest: Lisa Simmons

Published: May 11, 2023, 6:45 p.m.

Today we have a very special Mother's Day guest \u2013 Allie's mom! She's here to talk about raising children from babies to adults. We start out with some advice for mothers of babies and toddlers: you can't do everything, and that's OK. We talk about the pressure to have it all together and how quickly it will all go by. We also discuss how raising children can be categorized into three six-year segments, and we go through some advice for each segment. We'll share some stories from childhood and give some advice to the mom who is scared to have kids.\xa0We hope this episode encourages all you moms and moms-to-be out there!\n\n---\n\nTimecodes:\n\n(00:51) Interview begins\n(01:35) Advice to moms of kids ages 0-6 / you can't do everything\n(07:14) Time goes by quickly\n(12:18) Advice to moms of kids ages 6-12\n(17:32) Sleepovers, friendships & bullying\n(22:59) Devices & social media\n(24:44) Advice to moms of kids ages 12-18 / curfews\n(39:26) Advice to moms of adults\n(41:12) Grandparents\n(43:55) Advice to the mom who is scared to have kids\n\n---\n\nToday's Sponsors:\n\nPatriot Mobile \u2014 go to PatriotMobile.com/ALLIE or call 878-PATRIOT and use promo code 'ALLIE' to get free activation!\n\nSeven Weeks Coffee \u2014 Seven Weeks is a pro-life coffee company with a simple mission:\xa0DONATE 10% of every sale to pregnancy care centers across America.
