The next mess-isode. The kid messes and would you rather?! The Unhelpful Parenting Podcast Ep. 35

Welcome to the new mess-isode! This week we asked ‘what’s the worst mess your kids have made?’ and the answers were as hectic as you’d expect! Plus we’ve got a new segment and other fun and messy parent life laughs.

Here’s what’s coming…

Starting with our usual yay and nay of the week:

Bec’s nay: Doing a whole week solo while Sam was away for work (when do single parents shower?!)

Bec’s yay: the tuckshop lunch app – again! The disorganised parents lifeline!

Sam’s yay: my kids STILL love me (the card even said so)

Sam’s nay: daylight savings makes working between states a bit of a mess.

Sam slips a dad joke or three into this episode and signs himself up to dress up as batman in the office (we wish that was a joke).

Then Bec introduces a new short segment (while the confessional has a siesta) called ‘Parents in the news’. This week sharing a new Bluey story where a police strike force (called strike force bandit) recovered over 40k of the 63k Bluey ‘dollar bucks’ coins that have been released by the Royal Australian Mint. Yes, this is real. And yes, they are selling on ebay for way more than they should!

We are then sharing the mess stories! From a few unfortunate poo-paintings, to real life paint paintings, all the toys, wall drawings and food attracting ant nests – there’s a few doozies that will make you feel like you’re not the only parent who’s had a bad day (or week, or month!).

We wrap up with a ‘would you rather’ mess edition – comparing mess scenarios and which would be worse (though we think we’ll take none of the above thank you!).

We wrap up with a reminder to send us your stories, SHOW US SOME LOVE and follow us on all the social platforms you’re on.
