Part 2 of our making friends series, LenEll, Trisha and Chad talk about the line of humor vs sarcasm. Humor is anything that makes people laugh. It can be light-hearted or dark, slapstick or witty. Humor includes jokes, puns, funny stories! Sarcasm is more biting and intended to mock or convey contempt. Its often used to criticize or insult. An important part of making friends is knowing the difference. Where is the line? When does an emerging skill such as appropriate humor cross over into bullying? When our kids are online, how do they know the difference and how can parents help our kids navigate true relationships from those that are potentially harmful? How can parents help with an emerging sense of humor and how do our kids mirror their parents' personality? When does a joke go too far and when it does how can we help our kids learn to pull it back? When is kidding truly kidding or when is it not kidding?Send us a textfinding-moments.com or Etsy Shop

Episode 25 is an honest conversation surrounding The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt. We highly recommend this book for parents of teens and tweens even though it completely scared the bleep out of us! Also check out the author's companion video Smartphones vs Kids. Jonathan Haidt does an amazing job breaking down why we are where we are. The 90's gave us personal computers and the internet. 2010 gave us the first iPhone. In 2012, Facebook acquired Instagram. The front facing camera then led to the selfie craze. These pivotal moments opened the door to losing real face to face moments with screens as well as adding a level of stress, unrealistic expectations and ultimately depression for a significant percentage of our youth population. Then the pandemic shattered our sense of reality and has now created a generation of IPAD / YouTube kids (skibidi toilet?). Social media providers know how to keep our kids locked in to the screen using algorithms and gamification. How can parents deal with this when we are also locked in? Time to look up and recognize the importance of social interaction in the real world, not our screens. Not to say they are a bad tool ... they are a great tool with endless possibilities. Teaching our kids how to turn them off is ballgame. For us, it really comes down to REAL social experiences.Send us a textfinding-moments.com or Etsy Shop

Have playdates become too competitive?Writing in the Irish Independent today, Tanya Sweeney talks of homemade smoothies, crudites and educational games – very different from the past!Tanya, as well as Katie Makk from the Opinions Matter podcast, join Andrea to discuss.
A survey has found that 88% of parents say that social media has made playdate hosting even more competitive.Parents now feel they have to ditch the fizzy drinks and choc-ices in favour of smoothies and veggie crisps.78% agree that the idea of having a few friends over for nuggets and a movie is no longer considered good enough, as the expectation is for better-quality and more nutritious food - as well as more diverse options.Is this something you have experienced?To discuss, Andrea is joined by Journalist Niamh O'Reilly, Emma Manley, Creative Director of women's wear brand Manley, Off the Ball's Adrian Barry as well as listeners.

I Will Do Better: A Father's Memoir of Heartbreak, Parenting, and Love by Charles Bock Amazon.com By turns comical and heartbreaking, I Will Do Better is the remarkable journey of two defiant and wounded people, and their personal growth in the name of love. Named one of the Best Books of Fall by Oprah Daily and People "A uniquely forthright and powerful addition to the literature of fatherhood.” (Kirkus) The novelist Charles Bock was a reluctant parent, tagging along for the ride of fatherhood, obsessed primarily with his dream of a writing career. But when his daughter Lily was six months old, his wife, Diana, was diagnosed with a complex form of leukemia. Two and half years later, when all treatments and therapies had been exhausted, Bock found himself a widower—devastated, drowning in medical bills, and saddled with a daunting responsibility. He had to nurture Lily, and, somehow, maybe even heal himself. I Will Do Better is Charles's pull-no-punches account of what happened next. Playdates, music classes, temper tantrums, oh-so-cool babysitters, first days at school, family reunions, single-parent dating, and a citywide crippling natural disaster—were minefields especially treacherous for Charles and Lily because of their preexisting vulnerability: their grief. Charles sought help from friends, family, and therapists, but this overgrown, middle-aged boy-man and his plucky child became, foremost, a duo—they found their way together. This frank and tender memoir of parenting his infant daughter in the wake of of his wife's untimely death is "bracingly honest [and] tender," commented Publshers Weekly. "Single parents will find much to identify with in this warts-and-all account.”
Another parent is charged in the connection to a school shooting. This time the father of the suspected Georgia school shooter is facing several serious charges because investigators believe he knew his son had access to a weapon. Will charging parents serve as a deterrent for future gun violence or are prosecutors over stepping? Gen Z and millennial workers are burnt out and unhappy. Why studies show managers are missing the mark. And a new frontier for playdates. Parents are handing out business cards to arrange get together. Too much or too clever? The AnchorMoms weigh in.

They wanted to suck us in, and boy did they! Did you even know "rage bait" was a thing?? We did not until this episode and honestly, it worked. They got us, but they also got some good conversations going. So although it's unanimous that NO ONE will be paying for playdates anytime soon, it is good to just be aware of the kind people hosting our kids. Let's make sure our village knows how much we appreciate them. And watch out for that rage bait!

Get ready to embrace the chaos and dive into the crazy days of summer with Andie and Angie. Summer may be all about fun for the kids, but let's face it, it's survival mode for moms! Summer as a mom can be a lot of work since your kids are with you most if not all of the time. Plus, kids apparently are extra hungry during the summer and need to eat snacks nonstop. Playdates, dollar days at the movies, library visits, reading, beach days, and Milkshake Mondays are activities that keep kids engaged all summer long. There is definitely an adjustment period siblings experience since they go from school and extracurricular activities to being together all day, every day. It's a whole new level of togetherness. Kids have been looking forward to summer for months. As Andie says, “The need for a break and to just rest is needed now more than ever before.” So take a deep breath, and know that Andie and Angie are cheering you on as you try to make summer as fun as possible.

In this podcast episode, Shauna & Rachel discuss strategies for managing playdates with their children. Key points include: Start with a Snack: Ensure children are not hungry to avoid unhappiness. Open Doors Policy: Keep doors open during play for safety. Game Rules: Host's child is the first player for video games at their house. For imaginative play, here's three main rules: Inclusion: Everyone can join the game. Autonomy: Each child chooses their own role. Respect: Use polite requests to avoid controlling others. They discuss managing dynamics between mixed-age groups, scheduling activities flexibly, and using a three-strike rule for Shauna's 6-year-old with autism. They emphasize the importance of free play, conflict resolution, and allowing children to learn through experience.
