Show Notes
This week on Parenting Is a Joke, Ophira Eisenberg welcomes podcast pioneer Biz Ellis from the wildly popular One Bad Mother show! Biz shares her strategies for raising emotionally forward kids, from letting them slam doors to giving them ice to smash against walls. Meanwhile, Ophira reflects on her own parenting moments, like offering her son the chance to scream it out in the car and navigating impulse control challenges. Together, they explore the long game of emotional growth and why creative outlets for frustration can work wonders.
They also discuss the dynamics of raising teens and tweens, with Biz dishing on her “yes and” relationship with her 15-year-old and the ups and downs of managing her emotionally intense fifth-grader. The pair also laugh about the absurdities of parenting culture, from outdated punishments to the joys of sweeping as a therapeutic activity.
