Summary

What’s more controversial than politics? Parenting. In this unhinged, unfiltered, and unexpectedly heartfelt episode, Kristin, Deena, and Tyler go head-to-head on the most hotly debated parenting topics: screen time, co-sleeping, lying to your kids, SAHM vs working mom, and more. It’s hilarious. It’s real. It’s backed by science and sarcasm. And by the end, you’ll feel seen, soothed, and maybe a little sweaty.
