Summary

I’m joined this week by Caitlin Murray of Big Time Adulting for a special listener Q&A. We’re digging into your most common parenting questions—from knowing when to push kids to try hard things, to handling tantrums without losing it, to navigating bullying and screen time. Caitlin brings her humor and honesty, and I bring the developmental psychologist’s lens, so you’ll walk away with strategies that are both practical and real.
