My Kid’s Bad At Baseball (And He Knows It)

58 min • 19 september 2024

On this episode: Elizabeth, Zak and Lucy help a listener who left us a voicemail about their little athlete who’s just not great at baseball… and he also gets upset when the game doesn’t go his way. If this kid were an adult, it’d be time to have an honest conversation about knowing your strengths. But how does that conversation work with a kid?


And after that conversation, of course, we’ll also debrief on our week in parenting with a round of triumphs and fails.
