F*ck Around and Find Out Parenting

“F*ck Around and Find Out” parenting—what even is that?! This week, Dr. Becky dives into the rise of the FAFO parenting trend. Why is this approach gaining traction in the age of gentle parenting? Is it a pushback against gentle or intensive parenting? A response to the burnout many millennial parents are feeling? Or has it always been around, just under a different name? Dr. Becky explores what makes this trend so compelling and what it might reveal about us as parents today.Sometimes FAFO parenting comes up when our kids are in a bad place with bad behavior. If you can relate, then you won't want to miss "Why Is Everything a Battle?" Dr. Becky's Live Workshop on Power Struggles, Defiance, and Strong-Willed Kids happening on Thursday, Apr 17 from 01:30 PM - 02:45 PM EDT.

Recently, I’ve been on the road spreading the word about my new children's book, That’s My Truck: A Good Inside Story About Hitting!. I’m so grateful and excited to be on this book tour, connecting with our community in person. And it’s also true that being away from home can feel hard. That’s why I love Airbnb–I can find and book a place that feels just a little bit more like home away from home, somewhere I can come back to at the end of the day and recharge. Something else I love about Airbnb is that you can become a host while you’re away by offering your home to someone traveling to your town! Your home might be worth more than you think.
