Want to feel better about your parenting skills, or your parents when you were growing up, then give this episode a listen!
This week Jacki and Tess discuss parenting fails that will have you asking yourself, how could that have possibly happened in real life!?
Parents who accidentally sent their kids to school with items that should never go in a child's lunch box, like a hand gun, beer, N/A vodka, and a 4 Loko. Dads naming their daughters after mistresses, crushes, and in one case a random lady he read about in the paper that was murdered. A teenage daughter discovers dad with another woman, tells her mother who lied about their open relationship and let her daughter and siblings think that their dad is a cheater, so dad reacts in his own way when he finds out what his wife did. A 14 year old's mom goes full "Karen" and threatens to get a brand new Walmart shut down after lane closure meltdown, leaving her daughter mortified. Coupon "Karen" calls cops on a cashier when her fake coupons won't work and threatens the cashier to “meet her in the parking lot after work”. Dad trolls daughter in the most wholesome way on social media, and racks up 2x as many followers as his daughter. A mom ties her kid to clothing rack WITH A LEASH so she could shop alone. Helicopter mom goes with 17 year old daughter EVERYWHERE, to parties, school events, won’t let her watch pg13 movies, and even goes as far to bully her daughter's friends for having fun while shadowing her poor daughter. A poor mom tells the story of when her kid stuck a pad to the back of her pants and she didn’t notice until she got home later that day... Plus, Tess and Jacki share some of their own stories from when they were younger! You don't want to miss this episode!
