'He's Had To Man Up Fast' | Georgia Jones & Kelsey Parker On First-Time Dads & Blended Family Life

'He's Had To Man Up Fast' | Georgia Jones & Kelsey Parker On First-Time Dads & Blended Family Life

Georgia & Kelsey get right into it this week.


Kelsey's partner Will's about to become a dad for the first time: and he's walking into it the hard way.


Kelsey raised Bodhi's baby years almost entirely alone, so this time feels completely different: parenting as a two. But she reckons Will's had it tough: plonked in at the deep end with a five and seven-year-old, made to "man up" fast, and now rewinding all the way back to a newborn he's never experienced. She's bracing for the arguments, the emotions, and Bodhi already insisting he's still the baby.


Then there's Cooper's big school shake-up. New class, new year, friends split up and reshuffled. Cooper came skipping out (mostly because the kid who wasn't nice to him got moved), and the mum group chat descended into chaos when Danny accidentally added himself to the wrong one.


Plus, this week's Mum's The Word Top Fives: the things your own mum and dad do that wind you up.


  • The "he ate all his potatoes" fib no grandparent will ever admit to
  • Insisting you were the perfect baby while your kid is apparently impossible
  • Retired parents somehow being busier than you'll ever be


Grab a cuppa. This one's close to home.
