Welcome to This Glorious Mess Big Kids, a twice-weekly look at parenting as it really is - confusing, exhausting, inspiring, funny, and full of surprises. So many surprises!

We have a very special guest joining Holly and Andrew today! David Campbell is a performer, co-host of Today and Officeworks Back to School ambassador, and also the father of three kids!

He has a few parenting Golden Rules to share with us, and gives some tips on getting kids ready to go back to school, and how to encourage them to play an instrument.

Plus Holly and Andrew share their Nails and Fails and answer a parenting mentor question about a teen that will simply not get out of bed in the morning.

THE END BITS
