Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Parenting Fails
Q: What is your biggest parenting fail and what did you learn from it?
Carrie shares a serious reflection about black-and-white thinking learned in a strict upbringing, realizing it affected her relationship with her kids, and she emphasizes choosing a more nuanced, patient approach.
Parenting Guilt
Q: Can you stop yelling at your kids and what helps?
Use strategies like whispering instead of yelling, and when overwhelmed, pause, hug your child to reset your nervous system, then address the behavior calmly.
Parenting Guilt
Q: How do you forgive yourself for genuine parenting mistakes you feel guilty about?
Distinguish between beating yourself up and holding yourself accountable; apologize where needed, learn from it, and move on with self-compassion, recognizing that you will make mistakes as a fallible human.
Supporting a Child with Mental Health Struggles
Q: My young teenage daughter expressed suicidal thoughts. How do I know if I should put her on medication?
Medication decisions are hard and should be made with thorough medical consultation, ensuring therapy is part of the plan and that you work with a psychiatrist who spends substantial time with the child; avoid rushing to medication after brief evaluations.
Answering your questions!
Q: What guidance do you have about keeping a child safe with technology when there are risks of self-harm or dangerous behavior?
Respect the child's lifeline and avoid removing crucial contact routes during crises; discuss boundaries and consider safer devices (like limited-use phones) as a life-saving option, while maintaining ongoing communication and supervision.
