In this episode we discuss the challenges of parenting during the holiday season, the importance of teaching children about generosity, and the impact of technology on social skills. We share personal anecdotes about their experiences with customer service, dining out with children, and the significance of fostering communication skills in kids. Our conversation also touches on the challenges posed by social media and the need for parents to set boundaries with technology. As they reflect on family traditions and look ahead to the future, they emphasize the importance of intentional parenting and embracing the chaos that comes with raising children.
