Beyond the Bump

We couldn’t go to Sydney without popping in to see our favourite parenting expert, Gen Muir, in the studio! We quiz Gen on her own personal experience of raising tween and teen boys before she joins in for our normal Bumpie Group Chat chats. This really was Beyond the Chaos! We discuss…

Teenage sons and growing water bills

Vaping, masturbation and approaching big topics with our kids

Did the old cigarette scare tactics work?

The rollercoaster of Year 9

What does the research say on letting your kids have alcohol?

Sophie and Jayde’s unhinged romantic fails

Bumpies share their *crappy* date stories

How can we not be scared when our partner is away overnight?
