This week, Robert and Kyle return to discuss common sayings and folksy advice that people often give to parents. Jeepers, most of these are terrible. How many of these topics have you heard?

1. Cutting Gums/Rubbing Whiskey on Gums
2. Spare the Rod, Spoil the Child/Kids just need a good spanking
3. Let the baby cry it out - Comforting a baby spoils them
4. Boys should play with boy toys / Girls should play with girl toys
5. Don't Intervene—Let Kids 'Fight It Out' Themselves
6. If your kid is hitting or biting others – hit or bite them back
7. Just ignore them when they're having a tantrum—they're just seeking attention
8. If they aren't talking/walking (Hitting certain milestones) by [X exact month], something is wrong—They should be tested immediately
9. They have to learn the hard way
10. Sleep When the Baby Sleeps
11. Breastfeed...OR ELSE

Robert went on a Cruise!!! Now that he's back, he tells Kyle all about the 25hr drive, the wonderful food, and the pushy merchants trying to sell their crazy trinkets. Did Robert get his money's worth out of soft serve and Jello? Did he remember to pack his bathing suit or did he have to borrow some see-thru trunks from his cabin neighbor? Did his room come with the upgraded spy-camera package?! Tune in to find out! As always, we appreciate everyone for listening.

For October, Robert and Kyle continue their on-going discussion on Great Dad Topics. Our hope is to inspire other parents to model healthy behavior as they raise awesome kids.

• Topic 1: You’re Going to Wish You Took This Seriously
• Topic 2: You’re Going to Need Slack (Do You Have It?)
• Topic 3: Who Are You?
• Topic 4: Make Sure They Have Their Time
• Topic 5: They Just Wanna Be Loved
• Topic 6: They’re Just Tired
• Topic 7: These Are the Three Most Beautiful Words
• Topic 8: This Is How You Get Them To Read
• Topic 9: If Anything, You Should Be Slowing Down
• Topic 10: They'll Get Acceptance Elsewhere If They Don't Get It From You

As always, if you have other parenting topics worthy of discussion, please email us at DeepHopics@gmail.com with suggestions. Thanks for listening!
