Lying to your kids is acceptable, right?

Season 2, Ep. 3

Flawsome is the podcast for parents who are flawed and awesome - so if you’re a person with kids, this is probably the show for you. On the show today, Amy and Michelle cover a lot of ground.


From the lies you've told your kids that they believe, to what happens when you prank your 13-year-old daughter, to cooking disasters from our partners and our mothers, Amy and Michelle have a lot to talk about this week so strap yourselves in.
