| 0:00.0 | We as parents, our primary goal is to keep our kids safe and healthy |
| 0:05.0 | and relatively psychologically on board with, you know, expectations for them. |
| 0:09.6 | So like, we definitely think that if students have their own way of managing homework, |
| 0:15.4 | the least amount of parent intervention and involvement, the better. |
| 0:20.2 | Say that again. Sorry, you should say that again. |
| 0:24.0 | Hey guys, it is Monday and welcome to the CatNet unfiltered podcast. |
| 0:29.6 | And this is a special podcast because Nat and I started the common parent |
| 0:34.0 | way back when, because when we had teenagers, we felt way over our head |
| 0:38.8 | and like, no one was talking about it. Toddlers and the younger ones, |
| 0:42.2 | everyone had all the conversations and there was books. |

| 0:50.0 | where they can go and listen to amazing experts. |
| 0:53.0 | Now, because we love our community so much, we wanted to bring over some of the experts |

| 1:01.0 | If you're in the membership, you know that you get full access to them |
| 1:05.0 | and you have a whole bunch of library in there. |
| 1:08.0 | So if you're new here, go check out the commonparent.com and if you're not, |
| 1:12.0 | you're going to take a listen to some of the experts that join us. |
| 1:16.0 | Really, it is about taking tools for your toolbox. |
| 1:19.0 | Quick hits because a lot of us don't have time for a lot of books |
| 1:22.0 | and all the experts are so amazing that learning something that's actionable |
| 1:27.0 | that day is like, ah, the best. |
