Hi, this is Charles Doohig from How2. And so far the new school year is off to a kind of rocky start in the

Doohig household. Meet my two sons.

Would you say you like school right now?

No, it's boring and it's hard to socialize within Zoom.

You like, sometimes do other things on your computer besides class? I know I do. Yeah like what?

Minecraft? You do Minecraft and you're supposed to be doing class? This back to school

season as you undoubtedly know is unlike any other. Whether your kids are

sitting six feet apart in the classroom wearing masks or permanently logged into

Zoom and you're worried about their minds turning to mush, there's no lesson plan for this kind of school year.

Yes, and we're in for the long haul. And now it feels like there's probably a right way to do it with a capital

R and I don't know what it is. You know when you look at that

big bad internet there's just so much available to you and it's so easy to find and

it's so easy for it to find you.

Screen time, virtual sex ed, applying to college during a pandemic and a recession.

In our special three-part series cheat, we take on your biggest back-to-school questions.

You know, you don't have to be perfect, but just trying and indicating a willingness to have difficult, uncomfortable

conversations that you don't know how to have, what an amazing thing

that is to show to your child.

So do your homework and look for cheat sheet from how-to.

Coming September 1st, wherever you listen to podcast.

Hey everybody, it's Tim Heidecker, know me Tim and Eric Bridesmaids and

Fantastic Four I'd like to personally invite you to listen to office hours live with me
