Picnic Table Politics & The Era Of Tiny Spies
Manage episode 515425167 series 2342979
Parenting can involve big ideas, public debates and the odd festive guilt trip - and this week, we’re tackling all three.
The man who created Adolescence has a new idea for how dads can connect with their sons - it’s beautiful, but one of us hates it.
Plus, Amelia dives into the kids party photo that’s divided Australia: can you really “bags” a park table?
And finally, it’s Elf O’Clock. Monz realises she’s the last mum on earth without a tiny spy living in her house, and wonders aloud if there are some traditions that should just be left alone.
Our recommendations:
💄Stacey recommends you treat yourself to a $150 Mecca makeup lesson (redeemable on product) where you learn game-changing tips.
❤️🩹 Monz wants you to check out A Year of Healing by Lucy Ormonde on Substack, a brilliant guide to showing up for a friend going through cancer.
⏰ Amelia is recommending Dr Dan Shapiro’s idea of time-ins: five minutes of phone-free, one-on-one time fully led by your child.
