Me and my pal Justin Menda from Rocket Prep, talk all about helicopter parenting and what studies are saying about it (it's not GOOD). Take a listen to hear what it's like to hang with us and hash out child dev stuffs. We talk about how kids brains are developing slower and it's NOT a good thing. How by hovering we are, unwittingly, harming. It's not too late. Listen, learn, laugh (a lot). Stay until the way end for our love fest. Some friends you meet later in life and you connect instantly. This is our second of many pods. Justin is brilliant and so much fun and so kind. This one is a can't miss. It's long but sooooooo worth it.

My buddy and I, Michael McLeod from Grow Now Therapy, chat about the difference between boys and girls when it comes to ADHD or Executive Functioning Developmental Delay. We don't have enough information to address non-binary, gender fluid or trans kids. I would love to delve into that but today it's about cis kids. Don't miss this fascinating discussion about ADHD/EFDD. You will learn things you never knew. This is so great.

What happens when two new friends forever get together to talk kids? You HAVE to listen to find out. It is madness and mayhem and LOT'S of fun. My pal Ginna is an SI. What is that you ask?

Well, she helps them meet milestones, play, gain life skills, communicate, focus better at school, gain important social skills.... You will also learn about Maslow's Hierarchy Of Needs and why it's important to know it about especially for teachers. There is so much packed in here. You will laugh, you will learn, you will get a glimpse into what it likes to hang out with us ladies, haha. Oh and this one is NOT for the kids. Some NSFW words in there.
