Today on the podcast, we'll be talking about the infinitely wise (if hard to stick to) parenting strategry of choosing your battles, reveal our #first7jobs, shout out some stuff we like on the Roundabout Roundup, and lament the veritable forest of paperwork it takes to get a kid through school. Here's your road map to the episode: 04:34 You Choose, You Lose — We've all had success with picking the issues we want to focus on with our kids, sure, of course we have. But when spouses choose different battles, kids get in on the action, and we can't even win the fights we choose to engage in, things get complicated. 18:12 Speed Round: #first7jobs — We've all seen the hashtag, now here's how we'd answer the call. It's a diverse batch of occupations, but Nicole's still had the oddest job among us. 22:04 Parenting Roundabout Roundup — Terri is winning some stress battles with the help of the apps Flow and Stress Baal; Catherine suggests a Donors Choose project to look into; and Nicole has been binge-watching Broad City on Comedy Central and thinks you should be too. 25:50 Interview of the Week — It's that time again when educators test parents' penmanship and patience with forms on top of forms on top of forms. Nicole schools guest Maureen Wallace on the true purpose behind all that paperwork practice. 37:54 Shameless Self-Promotion — Terri is previewing some fall TV on her blog Too Old for Cool; Catherine has an article on the benefits of sports for kids; and Nicole shares some easy ways to teach students with intellectual disabilities. Thanks as always to Jon Morin for producing our podcast and for our fun in-and-out music.
