Ever feel like your little one has a favourite? You're not alone! Parental preference is totally normal and super common, whether you’re basking in the glory of being the “chosen one” or dealing with the sting of being second pick. 

Kee and Kelly will share their personal experiences, feature stories from Sh*tters, and provide plenty of practical tips to help you and your co-parent navigate this together.  And remember, being the "chosen one" today means you're just one spilled juice away from second place tomorrow!

It's time to tackle one of the most anticipated and dreaded milestones of parenthood: toilet training. We all dream of the day when our little one finally says goodbye to nappies, but the reality? Well, it’s often more of a wild ride than a smooth transition. No sugar-coated advice here, just the nitty-gritty truth from parents who’ve been in the trenches.

All babies cry. We know this. But what happens if your baby NEVER stops crying? Kelly shares her raw, unfiltered journey with her newborn, who screamed for over 14 hours a day. It's an emotional rollercoaster and she doesn’t hold back. From traditional remedies to trying crystals, Kelly goes through every single thing she tried to soothe her baby. Spoiler alert: some worked, many didn’t.

Finding the perfect parenting balance is an art. From Kee's 2-rule household to Kelly's rule-packed life, how do we know which one will have the desired effect? And what sorts of kids are we raising if we err too much on the side of "no means no"?

And with their trademark wit and charm, Kel and Kee take us on a hilarious quest to measure up their little ones' milestones. But do these developmental checkpoints truly matter in the grand scheme of parenting?

We're diving headfirst into the juicy topic of spoiling kids.  Navigating the line between love and overindulgence can be a wild ride, but armed with a dash of self-awareness and a sprinkle of boundaries, you've got this parenting gig in the bag. Remember, it's all about finding that sweet spot where love shines brightest and spoiling takes a backseat.
