Ever wondered what life would be like inside your favorite movie or TV show? Join us this week on Brother, Sister as we launch "The Weekly What If," where fantasies become our reality. Picture Josh teaming up with Arnold Schwarzenegger in the adrenaline-fueled world of "Predator," while Lisa dreams of cozy family moments on the set of classic sitcoms like "Family Ties." Our nostalgic chat takes a humorous twist as we reflect on the household rules that shaped us—think strict bedtimes and dinner table etiquette. Despite sharing the same home, our experiences were worlds apart, and now those lessons creep into our parenting styles, where snacks and bedtimes are much more negotiable.

Shifting gears, we dissect the changing face of parenting, comparing the rigid rules of yesteryear to today's more flexible approaches. From balancing chores with rewards to ensuring gender fairness, we cover it all with heartfelt honesty. Listen as we champion the power of positive reinforcement over punishment and stress the importance of giving kids a voice within set boundaries. Personal anecdotes reveal the challenges and joys of raising children, especially when patience is vital in fostering independence. It's a candid conversation packed with laughter and insights that every parent can relate to.
