From the etiquette to expectations, gatherings are a two-way relationship between the hosts and the guests. In this flip side of last week\u2019s episode on hosting, Meagan and Sarah are talking about our favorite types of get-togethers, the ways we try to be \u201cgood guests,\u201d and our strategies for surviving social events (including the ones that feel high-stakes) with little ones. We point out how thoughtful preparation and honest communication\u2013with our hosts, kids, and even ourselves\u2013tempers the stress for everyone involved. To wrap it up, Meagan shares an important reminder AND a mantra moms can repeat when everyone\u2019s on edge. Whether you\u2019re getting ready for holiday parties or looking for tips that apply to any event, you\u2019ll find lots of reassurance here. Enjoy!
