Florida's bill has been nicknamed the 'don't say gay' bill. Here's more information on the bill:

How many times can we say 'gay' in this podcast episode?
Teaching kids in grades K-3 language to describe LGBT language will not change straight kids gay; just like teaching kids heteronormative language will make gay kids straight.
People have a right to be who they are. And they have the right to be introduced to language that will help them describe how they feel.

The bottom line is, the adults uncomfortable with kids being taught anything but heteronormative language and seek to put limitations on kids, aren't the ones who suffer...the kids are the one who suffer.

We are excited to be back for season 3, at long last!
We've been wearing or fighting over wearing masks for the last two years. Now that it appears we no longer require the mask as much, people are wondering how to return to life in public while remaining unmasked.
In this episode we will discuss how to model the great unmasking for our kids. Admiittedly, we explore other topics in regard to the mask because, well, it's been a while since our last recording.

Many people have claimed that the increase in stress, anxiety and depression in kids is due to being forced to wear a mask at school. That it gets in the way of their learning and affects their academic performance.
This is just NOT TRUE.
What we've observed of the many people/parents making these false claims are they simply lack an understanding of and education in mental health, OR people/parents who simply don't want their kids to wear a mask.
The mask appears to have become a symbol of a political stance or a loss of liberties in this country and THAT discord is what is affecting kids, not wearing the mask.
Listen in for more education and information about MASKS, KIDS & MENTAL HEALTH - the real truth and we will lay it out for you from a mental health professionals point of view. Show you evidence, explain what is more likely creating stress and anxiety and depression in kids, provide you with strategies to help them and talk about how you can advocate in your school district.

Jax and Renae discuss the mental health, academic, relationship and social affects on teens during the past year.
Teens are more resilient than adults give them credit for and instead of 'protecting' them from the trauma of this past year; it's imperative we listen to them, validate their feelings and support them in their own growth and development.
In this episode Jax and Renae help you with what to say and what to do to help your teen grow through this past year.
