August 11, 2026 · 31 min

Show notes

Lots of kids have extra energy, but sometimes hyperactivity can start being concerning. At what point is behaviour too disruptive for your child, and everyone else, and what do you do? Gen and Amy answer a listener question about this topic.

Plus, Amy has a gross parenting fail, but a beautiful win.
