Elementary-Aged Kids: Ups, Downs, Wonders & Challenges!

Laura and Sarah open this episode discussing some of rules from Laura's upcoming nonfiction release, Tranquility by Tuesday (out in October). Then, the episode is dedicated to the experiences (and sometimes challenges of) parenting 6-10 year olds. Sarah and Laura discuss their favorite aspects of this age group as well was some difficulties - some which they have gotten better at, and some which are still just hard! Topics discussed include hobbies and interests, sibling rivalry, 1:1 time, homework, friend issues, screens, and more. In the Q&A, a listener writes in a fairly common (and difficult!) question about pondering trying for kid #3.
