Two state legislatures, two visions of the parent's role. Connecticut's HB 5468 just cleared the House and is sitting in the Senate with a May 6 deadline. New Hampshire is moving the other way, with a Senate committee giving a warm reception to a bill that would end notification, recordkeeping, and annual evaluations. Then a 10-minute Sunday-evening prep ritual that lets you walk into Monday with a plan, not a panic.
In this episode:
- Connecticut HB 5468 clears the House 96-53 and heads to the Senate; clock ticking to May 6
