Podcast Episode 351: The Wild, Weird, and Hilarious Things Our Kids Have Done
Ever looked at your child and thought, How have you made it this far in life without serious injury? If so, welcome to parenting! From near-death experiences (that they somehow walk away from completely fine) to bizarre questions that make you question everything, kids are a never-ending source of comedy, chaos, and mild panic.
In this episode, we’re sharing some of the wildest, weirdest, and most hilarious things our kids have ever done—like hunger strikes over leftovers, finding “snacks” in questionable places, and a story involving a crack pipe that will make every mom gasp. We’re also diving into those awkward moments when kids blurt out something completely absurd in public (like demanding to know where the “scotch” is in butterscotch candy). Basically, if you’ve ever had to save your child from their own questionable life choices, you’ll feel right at home here.
But we don’t just stop at the laughs—we also talk about the reality of parenting in the digital age, like whether we should be tracking our kids’ every move or embracing a 90s parenting approach (a.k.a. pretending we don’t have Life360 and hoping for the best). Plus, we put out a special invitation for you to share your funniest parenting stories and maybe even join us on a future episode!
So grab a snack (or hide it from your kids), hit play, and prepare to laugh until you cry. Because no matter how weird your kids are… we promise, you’re not alone! 🎧😂

In this episode of the No Guilt Mom podcast you’ll hear:
- From eating off the ground to literally pulling food out of the trash, we’re exposing the truly bizarre things our kids have put in their mouths.
- Should we track our kids 24/7, or just assume they’re fine like our parents did?
- How a simple doctor’s form turned into an absolute disaster when her child answered way too honestly. 😳
- From shouting inappropriate questions to announcing their gross habits, our kids have definitely humiliated us in public more than once.
