Where Lorelai Gilmore Went Wrong & Other Hot Takes on TV Parents

Listen Later

We’re unpacking the very *best* and the very *worst* TV parents—from Mom Tiger to Lorelai Gilmore to Logan Roy, and everyyyyone in between. Join us, along with VP hype squad aka Kristin’s husband Tyler for an episode that is *sheer fun*, includes TONS of nostalgia, and also happens to be full of SUPER valuable nuggets of ACTUAL parenting wisdom. Highlights include:

  • Lorelai Gilmore: national treasure OR in a super unhealthy codependent relationship with her kid?!
  • Who is the most universally loved TV dad, and is his parenting style admirable OR just completely unattainable?
  • Why TV moms *still* don’t get enough credit (BOO.)
  • Insight from an actual therapist on what *exactly* makes Logan Roy one of the WORST parents in TV history
  • Home Alone: Fun family flick or the start of years of therapy for Kevin McAllister?
  • PLUS a super helpful listener Q-and-A where we tell you how to handle your toddler’s screaming when it feels SUPER triggering
  • AND the EXACT, best way to get your kid to transition or leave the park when it’s time to go, including one of our favorite hacks to help you avoid a power struggle in the first place
