## Resource

In this episode of Thriving and Surviving, we share a sun soaked holiday story that turned into a much bigger conversation about Mediterranean style parenting. We talk about family meals, community, slower living, letting kids be bored, and why we believe children should be welcomed in public spaces instead of treated like an inconvenience. We also get into the realities of screen time, the upcoming social media age limit discussions, and the pressure parents face from every direction. We chat about frustrations with homework and school culture, plus one mum’s decision to seek a private ADHD assessment after a really upsetting incident at school. This episode is honest, reflective, and full of the parenting conversations people are often too scared to say out loud. Plus, we’ve got a special guest joining us next week.
