Remember those toilet paper shortages? We share how we handled that situation like total pros. Aimee recently tried to be a good Samaritan and learned why 60% of the time this is a terrible idea...every time. Also, is it impossible for anyone else to grocery shop with all their damn kids without them trying to buy nothing but total B.S. the entire time? And finally, the real purpose of this episode: Nuance & Common Sense and the infuriatingly/hilariously low levels of 2nd-level thinking and initiative that exists with parents and adults...which then leads to kids struggling with the basics and looking like the worst versions of adults out there. Kids just mimic what they see - kids are a mirror. Want kids to look and sound different? It starts with us.

Subscribe to the podcast and catch all of our episodes where John and Aimee share their thoughts, musings, tips, and principles on a variety of topics relating to raising kids, running a virtual administrative business, and the circus that is their life.
