Parenting Teens Unfiltered: AI Is Everywhere: What Can We Do?

Season 12, Ep. 24

Welcome to the NEW podcast all about parenting teens with Cat & Nat. Each week we are going to go over topics that you need to know and bring an expert to break down an important topic. New episodes every Monday, subscribe wherever you listen to your podcasts.


Why do we hold our kids to a higher standard than we hold ourselves when it comes to how we conduct ourselves online? Everywhere you look, there are people dropping negative comments. What if social media just turned off comments for a year—or even just two months? Would we all feel a bit better? Let’s be honest, it’s hard to feel good about yourself after leaving a negative comment. So what’s the real motivation? Are we looking for engagement, a debate, or just reacting to something we don’t agree with? Check out https://www.thecommonparent.com/ for all things parenting.


This podcast is presented by The Common Parent. The all-in-one parenting resource you need for your teens & tweens. We've uncovered every parenting issue, so you don't have too.


Join now for only $6.99 / month & get access to our monthly fireside chats where you can ask us anything! www.thecommonparent.com

    We had so much fun talking with Kim and Penn that we had to bring it to you in two parts!

  • 49. Hold Space For The Ugly Days

    36:08||Season 12, Ep. 49
    We’re talking about holding space for the “ugly” days—the ones where life just feels messy and whether we do the exact same thing as the day before, it's just one of those days. And if we need space for having an ugly day, so do our kids. Let's normalize the fact that you don't have to love everything, every single day. We need to stop fighting this feeling, there is always tomorrow or this afternoon. It's ok if it doesn't change. You can have bad days. And so can your kids.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

  • 48. Parenting Unfiltered: Do You Talk About Parenting Styles Before Marriage?

    28:58||Season 12, Ep. 48
    We are bringing you another parenting conundrum; you decide to spend your life with someone, but how much do you actually talk about the important stuff first? Parenting styles? Conflict management? The tricky stuff like how you’ll handle your child’s sexual orientation or dating rules for your teens? Most couples don’t even scratch the surface before walking down the aisle. We definitely did not!Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

  • 47. Viagra, Empty Nesters and Naughty Holiday Flicks!

    33:33||Season 12, Ep. 47
    This week we’re talking about everything from the bedroom to the big screen. First up, Viagra—why do men have an instant fix with that little blue pill, but women are still waiting for something to help with their libido? We're also breaking down the empty nester myth: do couples really heat things up once the kids are gone, or is it just wishful thinking? And finally, holiday movies— is it just us, or are they getting naughtier? DM us if you have insight into the empty nester myth because we want to hear it straight from you!Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

  • 45. True Crime Is Nat’s Obsession

    40:53||Season 12, Ep. 45
    This week, we’re doing a deep-dive into Nat’s true crime obsession because apparently murder mysteries are her happy place. We went down a rabbit hole with Wade Wilson—how are people finding him sexy? Is it the bad-boy charm, or are we all just a little unhinged? One of us is struggling to understand the appeal. It's all a little twisted yet it somehow brings a smile to Nat's face.Want our podcasts sent straight to your phone?

  • 44. Parenting Unfiltered: Navigating Cell Phone Use

    33:58||Season 12, Ep. 44
    We are gearing up to launch an incredible workshop designed just for parents tackling the ever-changing world of teens and their cell phone habits. Get ready for real talk, and practical tools to help you navigate this digital age with confidence! In the meantime, we thought it was the perfect time to revisit our chat with Dr. Alison Yeung for anyone who might have missed it the first time around!How are devices impacting the mental health of our youth? Dr. Alison Yeung, a Family Physician from Ontario, Canada, has noticed a growing number of teen mental health-related visits over the past decade. With kids spending increasing amounts of time on devices, especially on social media, YouTube, and video games, she began research on the topic. What she found raised serious concerns about how these platforms are affecting young minds. Now, Dr. Yeung is dedicated to educating parents, encouraging them to delay their children's exposure to social media, and reducing the harmful effects of handheld device use.
