Your Kid Walked at 10 Months. Cool. Nobody Cares — and Here's Why That's Actually Good News.

Robbie has definitely bragged about his kids hitting milestones early. He's also aware that he was being slightly annoying about it. This episode is his honest examination of the weird competitive culture that forms in parent groups — where normal developmental milestones somehow become a ranking system for whose kid is more special and, by extension, whose parenting is better.It's not about shaming the parents who brag. It's about what that competition is actually doing — to the parents whose kids develop slower, to the kids who eventually run into someone better than them, and to the whole idea of what you actually want your kids to measure their worth by.Topics covered: why parents turn childhood milestones into competitions and what that actually costs everyone, how bragging about your kid's early achievements can quietly create anxiety in other parents and other kids, what Robbie wants his own kids to hang their identity on instead of achievements, why your kid is the Bluey "Baby Race" episode in real life whether you like it or not, and the difference between pushing your kids to grow and tying your own self-worth to their performance.Send a message about the episode!
