Don't Take No for an Answer – 32
from I Shouldn't Have Had Kids Hosted by Ellen and Bonnie — Two irreverent moms
Kids hear "no" from the time they can reach out and rip an earring out of mommy's ear until the night they ask an adult to buy them alcohol for the senior prom. Who knew it was all training for the biggest "no" of them all? "No, honey, you can't have a social life during a pandemic." Ouch. It's time to be firm. Telling your kids "no" teaches them boundaries, respect, responsibility, and—these days—how to be a good citizen and help protect the lives of people they will never meet. Nobody ever said parenting was easy. If you're a bit of a pushover in the "no" department, it's time for an intervention from the irreverent hosts of your favorite comedy parenting podcast. We have stories. We have life hacks. And, as always, we have wine.
