When the parenting fails go from bad to worse!

from No Parental Guidance · host Hannah East & Louise Boyce

If you've ever felt like getting your kid into an after-school club is harder than buying Oasis concert tickets, this episode is for you! Louise and Hannah dive deep into the most chaotic parts of parenting, starting with the logistical nightmare of securing club spaces before they instantly fill up.  We confess to the difficulty of running children to all their activities only to fall asleep at music recitals and wonder how long we have to pretend the violin doesn't sound like nails down a blackboard. We get honest about the pressure to give our kids the best start, even knowing that only 0.04% of kids become professionals at their hobby.  The chaos doesn't stop there: we share stories of kids with no filter, like Louise's daughter asking a man if he was having a baby because he was "just fat," and the unbelievable tale of a three-year-old slapping a woman's bum in public.  The shock continues as Hannah recounts her traumatic chicken pox nightmare while on holiday, which ended with her son being escorted off the plane on the way home.  We also share a mortifying listener fail about a child walking in on parents having "quiet time,"  Hosted on Acast.
