If you could only secure one thing for your child, what would it be? And we don't mean a Nintendo Switch, but more like . . . you can secure contentment, kindness, success, or faith. Things like that. What would you choose?

Come to terms with getting older? Beth and Emily discuss such and more -- especially since they recently turned another year older.

Here's a topic where we are divided: pets. One of us is pro-pet. The other is, eh, pro-less pet responsibility. And heavens, how do you handle the whole pet situation with kids???

One question set off a discussion that filled an entire episode: What's your gut reaction when you hear the term "parent/teacher relationship"? All three of us had a different response. Yes, all three. A fellow team member and former teacher joined the conversation. Laurie gave insights both as an educator and as a mother. This is a good one, y'all!

Beth and Emily talk discipline fatigue, how the pandemic changed their approach, and how to handle all the discipline issues with teachers, grandparents, etc.

Take a listen as grandmothers for all walks of life share the burdens and beauty of their grandmothering experiences.

Warning: You will crave cornbread dressing, chicken and dumplings, and (maybe) corned beef and cabbage after you listen to this episode.

Beth and Emily dive deep into this topic, so moms can find space for "me time" instead of drowning in guilt and shame.

This episode is also known as the jackpot of parenting. Hear GREAT tips and encouragements from mothers, who have already walked through the middle school years with their kiddos.
