Do you find that your friends now a days depend on the compatibility of your parenting styles? Can your kids have friends who have been brought up differently?
In episode 19, the ladies talk about parenting styles in episode 2 of Mommy Wars.
They discuss the differences in parenting styles today versus years ago. Lawn mower, helicopter, free range parenting, snow plow and light house parenting are all new sub categories of parenting styles that are commonly spoken about these days.
How well do a helicopter parent and a free range parent get along? Can someone who allows their kids never ending freedoms befriend someone who won't let their children out of their sight? What about the children? Can kids of helicopter parents be friends with free range kids?
We discuss all these things on our latest episode!

Jenn and Laura revisit 2018 when Hurricane Florence ravaged the south eastern United States. Jenn and her family were living in North Carolina at the time and had to evacuate. While they were safe, her home had some damage. Her homeowners insurance came to the rescue and advertised “evacuation funds” and “home damage funds” if you file a claim. Naturally, she filed a claim. Her insurance was great and she was refunded.
Fast forward to 2021 and needing to buy another home, Jenn finds that she cannot get approved for homeowners insurance. Yes, that’s right. Apparently, being affected by inclement weather can cause future insurance issues.
Come listen to how claims are filed, how many you can actually have and the hassle she has had to go through to fix her homeowner’s insurance issue as she is currently trying to purchase a home. If you are anywhere, that has seasonal extreme weather, please listen. This discussion can save you some future headache.
