The Parenting Hangover

We have some sad news...this is the final episode of The Parenting Hangover. It's been an incredibly fun and rewarding journey, but all good things must come to an end, and this is ours.

Thank you from the bottom of our big dad-hearts for all of your support, feedback and listens. Connecting with other parents about this crazy parenting thing has been a huge privilege.

You can keep up with both of us on our socials @howtodadnz and @clinstagramm

Love you xx

Clint's put himself up as a prize at the school gala, but will anyone bid? Jordan recalls his prolific rugby career and teaches us all some core skills. Do we remember our childhood better than it was because there's very little video footage of it to prove otherwise? And Clint needs to make a decision about the dog.

Another 2 weeks of looking after your own kids 24/7 is done and dusted! So let'd catch up. Clint's thinking about getting a dog, Jordan is losing weight and getting ripped, Clint gets a great compliment from a listener, Mila is too good at touch rugby and needs humbling.

You guys are the stars of the pod this week. Jordan has taken over the inboxes and has found feedback on a bunch of TPH topics.

We've been here before, but like everything to do with parenting, it needs revisiting over and over to drive it home. Should an 11 year old have a cell phone? We say no, but Jordan's daughter thinks otherwise. Let's hash it out.

What is the hardest age to parent? From infants to teens, every age and stage has it's own unique challenges, but Jordan believes he is in the hardest part right now. Do you agree, or is it only going to get harder from here??

Plus - try explaining to a curios 12 year old what a "gob gob" is...eek.

It's time for one Dad on this pod to have the dreaded puberty conversation with one of his daughters. Jordan explains to us how he is handling (or not handling) it, and what he finds most challenging! We also compare it to how we experienced puberty conversations growing up - thank goodness things have changed!

Plus we catch up on Father's day, and Clint's never-ending concussion.

How did Clint get his concussion, and why did it make nationwide news here in NZ?? Plus, not to be outdone, Jordan has his own concussion story AND his own big secret to share!

Better late than never - we have had some technical and physical issues this week. Jordan was at the snow with no coverage, and Clint concussed himself walking into a lamppost on the school run (more on that next week...)

THIS WEEK Clint has a big secret to reveal - a decision him and Lucy have made for the sake of their marriage and family. Will Jordan judge, or accept? And is this the right idea for your family too??

The most important day in the Dad calendar behind, of course, Christmas, your birthday, the kid's birthday, and maybe his own birthday. What do dads REALLY want for fathers day? The answer may be simpler (and cheaper) than you think...

Plus some amazing ideas for the Dad olympics and a terrifying revelation about taking your kids out of school for trips away.
