Summary

Our kids are still home for another week so we are throwing it back again for a repeat of one of our faves. Think about how often you are posting your kids on social media and what you are posting about. You don't want to create their identity because you are posting what is important to YOU. It may feel to them that they are only valued because they are good at a sport or a subject in school. They aren't yet old enough to know that's not what their value is. Make it more than a post.

I hope it's giddy, giddy. This is a Tuesday podcast, and I've always loved my name. Yes, you have. I got lucky there, but I do have a friend who does not like her name still to this day. She's like, I just wish my name was different. I'm like, you can change your name. I don't care. Change it. Yeah.

0:56.9

I'm like, but she's like, she would, what would you change to? No comment. Like she didn't have, she had no response. So she just, I think, wanted to, you know. Yeah. Be a teenager. This morning she also announced to the, um, the, the, the breakfast room, which was my family, all of us in the, and said, you know, I sacrificed for all of you by being the first child. And then went on an announcement about what she's had

Basically. Yeah, she's like this. I'd like to let you all know you sacrificed for all of you by you by being the first born. What are the other two siblings? Look at you and they're just like, she was also the experiment because we'd never done it before. 100%. You know? And she's like, so I am the one who's suffering the most in this family. I just need you all to know that. I was just like out of the blue as we're all trying to make breakfast. It's very insightful because I think she's very right. And before I had kids, I never saw that. I always feel like, oh, that's such a firstborn. That's such a second born. That's such a thirdborn. And then... Your firstborn's not like a firstborn though. No. Taylor does not remind me of it. She, no, but she was an experiment. I know Teddy's like a firstborn. Yeah. Taylor, I would not be like, if I was to line all your kids up. Third and fourth, nailed it. I don't think I'm a normal, like, maybe I'm a normal middle child. The middle child is really anything. So The thing with, this is a really interesting stat

3:07.6

Yeah. Like, your mom still needs to come over and help you lots. Like, it's not like you're like organ, like being like, okay. Like, I would say your older brother is very much afforded. Like, he is a firstborn. He's like an only child. Is that like a very, but not act. He doesn't act like one. He's just very independent. Yeah. Yeah.
