Doomscrolling and Why We Do It
We’re talking about doom scrolling — why we do it, why our kids do it, and how it can quietly become the way we mute feelings we don’t want to deal with. Scrolling can make you feel everything, or it can make you feel nothing at all. Either way, it pulls you out of your own life without you even noticing. At some point, your kids will need to study or focus without you taking the phone away from them, and understanding their doom-scrolling habits is important for both you and them.This podcast is presented by The Common Parent.

Parenting Boys Through Rejection
We’re talking about an important part of growing up that often gets overlooked: rejection. Boys need to know that being broken up with isn’t something to be embarrassed about. Not every connection is a fit. Admitting they were rejected isn’t a weakness — it’s part of learning who they are and how to move forward in a healthy way. When we normalize rejection, we help them build resilience and emotional confidence. As parents, our job is to keep the conversation open and ongoing so our kids understand that rejection is a normal part of life. This podcast is presented by The Common Parent.
