Join two curious kids and their dad as they dive into candid conversations about the ups and downs of growing up, navigating life in divorced households, and everything in between. From everyday struggles to big questions, this podcast offers a heartfelt and honest look at what it’s really like to be a kid today. Tune in for relatable stories, laughter, and insights that resonate with both kids and parents alike! Oh, and a riddle to solve every episode.
After a two-month hiatus, we are back at the microphone! In this episode, we dive into a candid,hilarious, and thought-provoking conversation about modern parenting trends, upcoming holiday plans, and the chaotic beauty of growing up.
First, we tackle a trending topic: gentle parenting. Hear why the girls find the concept a little terrifying, what real-world life lessons mean to a teenager, and Dad's perspective on preparing kids for an un-gentle world while giving them room to make their own mistakes.
Next, we shift gears to the holiday season! From debate over Thanksgiving vs. Christmas and surviving "defrosting season" (cue Mariah Carey) to dreaming of touristy trips to New York City and brainstorming new family Christmas traditions like Secret Santa.
Finally, stick around for the long-awaited answer to our last riddle, a brand-new brain buster for next time, and an exclusive sneak peek of Addie's original song!
