Ep 25: Sleepaway Camp, Overprotective Parents & Why Girl Scout Cookies Are Trash | Hold My Baby

Welcome back to **Hold My Baby**, the parenting podcast where we love our kids… but we're also pretty sure every parenting decision somehow ends with therapy. This week, Eric and Kira tackle one of parenting's greatest challenges: **summer vacation.** Not the fun kind—the kind where your kids are suddenly home 24/7 asking, *"What are we doing today?"* before you've even had coffee. Things quickly spiral into: * Sleepaway camp horror stories our parents definitely made up * The difference between healthy independence and parental panic * Why modern parents trust absolutely no one * Childhood chores that would get adults canceled today * Eric cleaning toilets for free and being weirdly proud about it * Kira declaring war on Girl Scout cookies If you've ever questioned another parent's decision while simultaneously questioning your own... Congratulations. You're parenting correctly.  #parentingpodcasts #funnyparents #millennialparents #parentinghumor #modernparenting #summercamp #sleepawaycamp #comedypodcast #parentingpodcasts ---  If this episode made you laugh, question your parenting, or immediately inspect the ingredients on everything in your pantry:  👍 Like this episode  💬 Comment: Would you send your kid to sleepaway camp?  🔔 Subscribe so you never miss a new parenting breakdown  📤 Share this episode with the parent who definitely has an opinion about summer camps

Ep 24: Snack Kids, Bad Drivers & Babies Crying in Movie Theaters

Welcome back to **Hold My Baby**, the parenting podcast where we love our kids… but we are genuinely confused about how children survived before protein shakes, electrolyte packets, and emotional support snacks. This episode spirals immediately into: * Why modern kids apparently need snacks every 11 minutes * Kira admitting she may actually BE the problem 😅 * Eric’s immigrant-parent survival techniques * Teaching teenagers to drive while society completely loses its mind * Parents bringing screaming babies into movie theaters * Service dogs the size of actual horses on airplanes Honestly, this episode feels less like a parenting podcast and more like two exhausted adults documenting the collapse of civilization one parking lot at a time. If you’ve ever looked around in public and thought: *“How are these people functioning?”* …this episode is for you. ---  #holdmybaby #parentingpodcasts #funnyparents #millennialparents #parentinghumor #modernparenting #comedypodcast #familylife #baddrivers  --- If this episode made you laugh, judge strangers in public, or reconsider modern parenting entirely: 👍 Like the episode 💬 Comment your biggest parenting “this generation is doomed” moment 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next parenting breakdown 📤 Share this with a parent who keeps emergency snacks in every pocket Because parenting is hard…but surviving modern society with other parents? ---

Ep 23: TSA Chaos, Wonder Woman School Projects & Airport Parenting Fails | Hold My Baby

Welcome back to **Hold My Baby**, the parenting podcast where we love our kids… but we are deeply concerned about literally everyone else’s parenting choices. This episode has everything: * TSA bins becoming the hill Kira is willing to die on * Eric being “randomly selected” at airports forever because… brown * Airport parenting that feels less like parenting and more like surrender * Reclining airplane seats and the silent war of public travel * Parents refusing to tell their kids “that’s not a real person” * Kira’s absolutely unhinged OnlyFans retirement plan * And somehow… saggy boobs become a full segment Honestly? This episode feels less like a podcast and more like two exhausted parents filing emotional incident reports. If you’ve ever traveled with children and thought: *“Humanity may not survive…”*this episode is for you.  ---  #holdmybaby #parentingpodcasts #funnyparents #millennialparents #parentinghumor #modernparenting #airportchaos #comedypodcast #travelwithkids  ---  If this episode made you laugh, cringe, or immediately sanitize your hands: 👍 Like the episode 💬 Comment your worst airport parenting experience 🔔 Subscribe so you don’t miss the next parenting breakdown 📤 Share this with the parent who lets their kid lick airport windows Because parenting is hard…but raising kids in public?
