Not So Fancy Dress, Mums in the Wild and Parenting Fails

In this episode there are the usual laughs but also a big dose of emotion.  Kylie shares her most recent parenting fail - and how not to mess up again.  They also share listener stories of how to spot a mum in the wild - when they haven't got children with them.  And they talk about the seemingly constant task of trying to find appropriate fancy dress outfits for your kids.   Email: downwiththekidspod@gmail.com Instagram & TikTok: @DWTKPodcast [https://www.instagram.com/dwtkpodcast?utm_source=chatgpt.com] Hosts: Kylie Pentelow & Sarah Turner Tags parenting podcast, motherhood, fatherhood, honest parenting, family life, parenting fails, school milestones, parenting clichés, toddler life, raising boys, working parents, social media and parenting, family outings, toilet training, parenting humour, parenting pressure, parenting community, summer holidays with kids
