Mom And Dad Are Fighting | Slate's Parenting Show

On this week’s episode: Elizabeth, Jamilah, and Dan debate if it’s OK to teach your child to use gendered titles of respect, like sir and ma’am. Then they answer a mother who seems to do the lionshare of housework. Now her husband wants to seize an opportunity to be a stay-at-home father and she’s worried she will no longer be as valuable to the family.  In Slate Plus: What to do if you’re the rebel and your kid is the one who loves rules.
