The Ick

We love our kids. Deeply. Fiercely. Would do absolutely anything for them.

And sometimes... they give us the ick.

In this episode, we are talking about the things our kids do that make our eyes twitch and our nervous system short-circuit for a moment. Not because we do not adore them, but because parenting older kids brings a whole new level of sensory overload.

From questionable hygiene choices and mysterious smells to loud noises, zero personal space, and habits that make you whisper “please stop” through clenched teeth, this conversation is honest, funny, and very real.

This episode is a reminder that holding love and irritation at the same time does not make you a bad mom. It makes you human. Sometimes laughter is the best way to release the guilt, the overwhelm, and the overstimulation that comes with raising growing humans.

If you have ever thought, “I love you so much… and also please don’t touch me right now,” this one is for you.

Pull up a chair, laugh with us, and remember you are not alone in This Flocked Up Life.
