Have you ever read past parenting advice or hear from a relative what they would feed a baby "way back when"? Well after our Old Wives' Tales episode, we thought we would go another step and look at parenting through history. Beginning with the turn of the 20th century (around 1900) and ending at the 1970s. Part 1 discusses the periods between 1900-1930s. This has been hilarious and eye-opening for us and we hope you will appreciate the humor and how parenting has evolved over time.

Whether it is an unorganized, messy house, long hours at the office, or missing a child's practice or rehearsal, we all understand that nagging feeling in our guilt that says we are doing enough.
