20: Are American Parents Miserable?

from Hands Off Parents Hosted by Steph & Abby

This week Steph and Abby discuss a new study that argues that American parents are the most miserable in the world. The ladies kinda get why this might be, and they discuss how workplace constraints take a toll. But is this a new phenomenon or are U.S. 'rents just particularly miserable people? In the second half of the show, Steph is joined by her amazing mother who is filling in for a sick Abby to continue discussing how parenting has changed over the years (mostly because of the INTERNET!). They discuss when the happiest times of parenthood occur and why. Abby might argue that the happiest times are when you are laid up sick in bed, forced to watch 5 hours of Orange Is the New Black while your kids are at school. Like us on Facebook!
