  • Won’t Somebody Think of the Children! - The things we put up with for our Kids
    Jul 16 2024
    In today’s episode, we’re diving into all the things we find ourselves doing as parents. From pretending to enjoy Sports Day (seriously, whose idea was it to have sack races?), to spending our hard-earned cash on the latest “must-have” toy (it's already broken), and of course, finishing the food our kids don’t – because who doesn’t love cold, half-eaten fish fingers? We share the struggle of our sons having important events scheduled on the same day, being strong-armed into park trips on Fridays, and the soul-crushing sound of the Ice Cream van's jingle. And then there’s the obligatory visit to the gift shop at museums and theme parks, where you’re forced to spend a small fortune on overpriced tat. It’s like they’ve weaponised keychains and rubber dinosaurs against us! 📌 Episode Highlights & Chapters: 0:00 The things we do for our kids 02:12 - Is the youngest child always neglected? 03:49 - Are the kids really alright? 05:47 - Picking our favourite child 08:30 - A secular Christmas tale 12:55 - Eating the leftovers from our kids’ dinners 23:47 - Hayley’s newest social life: The Park Remember to like, subscribe, follow, and smash all the buttons to stay in the loop – unlike our kid’s schools, who clearly can't schedule events properly! #BusinessMarriagePodcast #SportsDay #BusinessGrowth #Podcast #Parenting #ParentingTips Learn more about your ad choices.
