Ep 5: School Rules, YouTube Kids & Parenting Without a Manual

Welcome back to **Hold My Baby**, the parenting podcast where we love our kids, fear school administrators, and are just trying to survive modern life with our dignity (and credit score) intact. This episode starts with a brutally honest breakdown of **how much money it costs to look like a woman over 40**, spirals into YouTube phrases your kids should *never* repeat at school, and somehow ends with school lunch rules that feel like minimum-security prison. Erik and Kira get into: Why beauty routines should be covered by insurance White teachers panicking, parents clarifying, principals saving the day Schools micromanaging kids like inmates Safety supervisors who are allergic to logic Sex-ed videos we now desperately want to watch If you’ve ever thought — welcome home.If this episode made you laugh, nod aggressively, or whisper *“yep, that tracks”*: 👍 Like the episode 💬 Comment with **your Hold My Baby moment** 🔔 Subscribe so we can keep parenting out loud 📤 Share this with another parent who hates school emails We’re not perfect parents — but we are paying attention.
