In this episode, Dean and Sara tackle two big parenting headaches: whether kids should be watching I’m a Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here! (and all the adult chat that comes with it), and the growing pressure around Christmas.
They chat about what age they let their girls watch the show, how much of the jungle drama and sex talk is suitable for little ears, and whether Dean could actually survive the trials himself. Then it’s onto Christmas: the unseen mental load, how much to spend on presents, whether siblings need equal-value gifts, if Santa should get all the credit, and whether we’re accidentally raising kids to expect too much.
They finish with a listener dilemma: a 21-year-old son’s girlfriend who eats, stays over, but never says hello or thank you. Is Mum being unreasonable, or is it just bad manners?
Perfect for anyone juggling screen time, Christmas pressure and grown-up kids with partners – with plenty of laughs (and a few savage truths) along the way.
