parent podcast

Things have definitely changed in schools. It may surprise you, but gone are the days of overly scrutinized calligraphy classes and with them, the ability to read cursive writing and sign a half-decent signature.

This week in Teachers in the News, Devin covers students attacking teachers, true crime teacher podcasts, self care for teachers, and an OUTRAGEOUS student loan bill for an Orlando teacher.

Devin's list of the most ridiculous rules at schools across the country will send you on your way asking who is running our schools?

Bienvenue sur le podcast des Parents Curieux, le podcast pour accompagner les jeunes parents sur les grandes questions de bébé.  

Dans ce onzième épisode, nous allons voir comment accompagner la motricité de bébé. Comment les parents doivent aider bébé, sans prendre sa place ? Avoir envie de mettre bébé sur les pieds, pour le faire marcher, lui apprendre à s'asseoir, l'aider dans sa vie quotidienne est une tentation naturelle pour les parents. Il faut apprendre à le faire tout en laissant à bébé la possibilité d'apprendre aussi par lui même. Dans ce podcast, retrouvez nos conseils pour que votre enfant évolue à son rythme.

Audrey Marcaggi, psychomotricienne en néonatalogie à l'Hôpital Privé Natecia à Lyon, nous donne des conseils et astuces pour aider bébé à bien grandir !

PARENTS GONE WILD!!!

A day out with friends ended up with a few too many drinks & a hangover the next day.

Heidi & Griffo chat about the importance of this for their relationship & more importantly themselves to let loose for a few hours & be who they used to be before the baby. 

BUT after a few drinks & leaving the baby, Heidi beats herself up feeling guilty & anxious.

We really did run wild...it was fun to forget all our responsibilities for a bit!

Our feature today is The Magic of Groundhog Day by Paul Hannam, a book exploring the classic 1993 movie Groundhog Day, starring Bill Murray. 

The two of us banter on about:

• How Groundhog Day = the parenting experience -- in more ways than mere repetition
• The mind-blowing concept of a “personal reality” + the ways it can limit us as parents/people
• How entitlement, approval, insecurity and control can rob us of the magic around us
• The Groundhog Day effect and how each of us is somehow living our own version of it
• How we (and our kids) all ride the DABDA roller coaster sometimes (wheee!)
• The power of paying attention… aka mindfulness
• How gratitude, repetition, acceptance and slowing down can help us break out of our personal realities to live more joyously and authentically

Our first Power Of episode explores the practice of parenting- how we can and why we should cultivate our own intentional, authentic approach and philosophy. We discuss how new “parenting” actually is, the conscious and unconscious influences that guide our hand and how we can ask WHY to bravely take what we like and leave the rest. The AUDIO from that happy hour is what you’ll be hearing here today... Let’s show up and grow up!
