In episode 7, we compare the experiences of raising an only child versus multiple children and discuss the uniqueness of raising boys. The conversation expands to address gender expectations, balancing emotional intelligence with raising resilient boys, and the challenges of co-parenting with differing philosophies. We also explore how modern-day access to information influences parenting and the constant worry parents face as their children grow older, especially as the mother of black boys and young men. 

This episode's Tap In or Tap Out? features a listener's dilemma regarding setting boundaries with an estranged father who wants to reconnect with his daughter and grandchildren, prompting a heartfelt discussion about forgiveness, healing, and establishing boundaries.
