June 12, 2020Raising kids during the era of #BlackLivesMatter and why you need to talk to your kids about race
In our inaugural episode, Big Momma Mia and Ronnie B discuss becoming parents, and parenting, during the age of #BlackLivesMatter and civil unrest. They highlight the disadvantage Black children are at as a result of the amount of time their parents have to dedicate to teaching them survival skills and not life skills. We answer the questions:

How should parents be addressing the topic of race?

Should we - and how do we talk about police brutality, racism and hate crimes at age appropriate levels?

How can we create space for our kids to navigate their own emotional journeys as it relates to race, racism and loss?
