Tangential Parenting: Don’t Play Operation with Surgeons

May 21, 2018 By Eric Olson

Subscribe: Libsyn // Spotify // iTunes // Stitcher // Google Play Music // RSS

You time. Do you get it? Or do you spend your few moments not taking care of kids, cleaning, or other chores mindless scrolling through Facebook?

Get some tips on how to maximize that time, as well as learn from Rachel that as kids get older, they can join you in things like video gaming sessions or crafting. Not all hope is lost… just missing for the first 5 years or so.

And in case you think it’s all advice and helpfulness, we also talk about Smallville cults, cooking karma, and what surgeons do in their free time.

If you have any questions or comments, please leave them below, on Facebook, or on Twitter. Please subscribe to our podcast and rate us on iTunes, Stitcher, or Google Play Music to help us reach a wider audience.

In case you missed the launch or previous episodes, Tangential Parenting is a podcast featuring Rachel from Starship Suburbia and me. We’re getting better at this thing, I promise.
