Mom And Dad Are Fighting | Slate's Parenting Show

On this week’s episode: Dan, Jamilah, and guest host Greg Lavallee answer listener questions from a parent whose daughter is afraid of the water and a mom who needs a response strategy for a disrespectful kiddo. For Slate Plus, the hosts strategize date night. Are microdates the solution to a busy schedule? Or is it worth the effort of hiring a babysitter to go out? Sign up for Slate Plus here. Recommendations: Jamilah recommends a newfangled entertainment destination… a place where you could spend hours without spending any money…. The MALL. Greg recommends Shashibo, a mesmerizing magnetic puzzle. Dan recommends Boom Blast Stix for little kids and Telestrations for bigger ones.
