Moms on a Mission

Ep. 36 -  The 2026 Parent Guide


Listen Later

If you’ve ever heard your kid say something and thought, “I have no idea what that means… and I’m not sure I want to,” this episode is for you 😅

In this episode, we’re having a lot of fun walking through a 2026 Parent Resource Guide that helps parents understand teen culture, slang, technology, and the world our kids are growing up in today.


We laugh, we cringe, we tell stories — but we also talk about real parenting stuff like:

  • Teen slang (including words we refuse to say out loud)
  • Phones, texting, Snapchats, and the private box parents didn’t sign up for
  • Why offline might actually be the new online
  • How to stay involved without hovering, panicking, or checking out
  • Faith-based tools that help parents lead with wisdom, not fear

We also talk about a practical phone alternative that keeps communication open without unlocking the entire internet — and why it’s caught our attention as parents.

This episode is equal parts culture check, parenting reality, and “I’m so glad it’s not just me.” Come laugh with us — and leave with resources you’ll actually use.
