Adopting a Teenager & Realising Every Parent’s Worst Nightmare

This week might genuinely cover every parent’s worst nightmare as we read through a scary dummy confessions sent in by one of our listeners… and immediately question why we decided to bring this topic up. Ryan also opens up a little more about his experience in foster care, sharing how those early chapters of his life continue to shape the way we approach adoption, attachment, and parenting our boy today. Ryan also launches a brand new surprise segment: “Things My Husband’s Done to Annoy Me This Week” all without giving Matthew any warning whatsoever. And the biggest realisation of the week? Lincoln’s growing personality has us both asking the same question: why does it suddenly feel like we’re parenting a teenager instead of a baby? Haha
