On this week’s Roundabout Roundup: Nicole's dog, and her carpets, are benefiting from Glandex Anal Gland Soft Chew Treats [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01L2K1R76/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1]. Terri surprised herself by enjoying the EconTalk podcast [https://www.econtalk.org/], and Catherine is buying cute gifts from Redbubble [https://www.redbubble.com/[.

While we're not there yet, eventually there will be a post-Covid reality. But how do you help kids get back to normal when there is no normal anymore? Mentioned: "What is scaffold parenting? It could be the key to help kids adjust to post-pandemic life" by Harold Koplewicz [https://www.usatoday.com/story/life/health-wellness/2021/02/18/covid-19-return-normal-may-mean-scaffolding-parenting-help-kids/6781737002/].

A blog post titled "5 of Our Parenting Choices People Have an Opinion About" got us ranting about why everyone insists on caring about how other families raise their kids. We judge those who would judge others.

Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist is back, and so is its general focus on White People Problems. But we're still rooting for Zoey and the gang (especially for the new love interests for Max and Mo). Next: "Zoey's Extraordinary Birthday."

On Veronica Mars, the coach's murder turns out to be merely a case-of-the-week that lasted two weeks. But the bodies keep piling up: Mindy O'Dell's ex, Steve, is dead by the end of the episode, and so is ... Sheriff Lamb! Next: "Papa's Cabin."

When we read "Doctors debunk 16 myths about raising kids" [https://www.businessinsider.com/experts-debunk-16-myths-about-parenting-younger-children-toddlers-2020-3], we had to jump in and debunk some of the debunking. After all, our mantra is "every family is different, every child is different" and sometimes that means those myths ring a little bit true.

Terri's trip to the Gluten Free and Allergy Friendly Expo (now called the Nourished Festival [https://nourishedfestival.com/about-us]) got us thinking about all the different allergy-accommodating foods available today and whether we really have to have that restriction to enjoy them.

How does your family manage during power outages? Do you happily play board games by candlelight, or sit in corners clinging to your dead iPhones?

On this week’s Roundabout Roundup: Catherine's beautifying her hair with Majestic Pure's avocado and coconut hair mask [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07Y29JGSK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1]. Nicole is loving her new Eufy robot vacuum [https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07R295MLS/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1], and Terri is adding variety to her daily tea menu with Celestial Seasonings' fruit tea sampler [https://www.amazon.com/Celestial-Seasonings-Herbal-Fruit-Sampler/dp/B000E63LME/ref=pd_ybh_a_5?_encoding=UTF8&psc=1&refRID=NMVC6MZKK4Q3FQNM0X3V].

We obsess about Reviews.org's offer of cash in exchange for a digital detox (https://www.cnn.com/2021/03/20/us/stay-away-from-screens-challenge-trnd/index.html; no phones, TVs, computers, video games, smart devices). We think $2,400 is a pretty nice sum for a 24-hour-long nap.

On this week's Round 3, we complain about the possibility of Instagram for Kids. This seems like a good idea for absolutely no one (except marketers looking to sell stuff to pre-teens).
