And when one of your kids complains about the other or wishes that their sibling was different, its triggering. Today, Dr. Becky talks to a mom about sibling dynamics that play out in her household.

This is a repeat of an earlier episode. When you have kids, caregiving tasks are never-ending. You have to make breakfast and pack lunches. Throw in yet another load of laundry. Answer snack requests. Pick up goldfish off of every surface in your home. Put away toys. Answer more snack requests. It can all be overwhelming. In this episode, Dr. Becky talks to author and therapist KC Davis about how to care for yourself and your home when everything feels like it's just too much.

Today’s episode is brought to you by SEED:
When kids are in a picky eating stage, one of the things that goes out the window is fiber - which is really important for regular bowel movements and the gut microbiome. 95% of children and adults in the U.S. don’t reach their daily recommended fiber intake. And it can be especially tricky to get enough fiber into the diets of picky eaters. With one serving of Seed’s PDS-08, your child is getting a third of their recommended daily fiber intake. You can just pour the pre-portioned sachets of naturally sweet powder into yogurt, a smoothie, milk — or whatever works for your family. Everyone wins: you don’t feel as stressed and your child gets all the benefits of a healthy gut — and, to be honest, more regular, easier poops! Use code GOODINSIDE for 20% off your first month of Seed's PDS-08 Daily Synbiotic + Free Shipping.

When your kid comes home from school and declares "I'm the worst at math" or, "everyone is better at gymnastics than me", you might think that you can teach them to believe in themselves with some words of encouragement. But confidence doesn't come from the outside. True confidence comes from feeling good enough inside. This week, Dr. Becky talks to a mom who is doing all the right things to teach her son to believe in himself but it just isn’t working.

This is a revisit of an earlier episode. You’re a good parent if you drink coffee while pregnant. You’re a good parent if you don’t breastfeed. You’re a good parent if you drag your kid to soccer practice… and then let them quit the team mid-season. Dr. Becky and economist Emily Oster break down the data (or lack thereof) behind popular parenting advice, redefining what it means to be a “good parent.”
