#409 - How to Parent When Your Kid Is Annoying

Listen Later

Kids are wonderful. Kids are also annoying. Parenting asks us to love them while they push our buttons, and if we don’t think ahead, we might react in ways we regret.

In this episode, three things to remember when your kid is driving you up a wall, plus seven common frustration points and how to handle them with a little more intention.

Not a parent? No pressure to listen! But if you need a different episode today, Episode 302: The Lazy Genius Guide to Basketball is here to help you survive March Madness.
