Meeting the principal of your kid's school when you are not happy with what is happening there is very tough. How can you get the most out of these meetings? Tina has experience from both sides of the fence. Is your kid a bit of daredevil? How do you reign them in without crushing that adventurous spirit? When a kid regresses to wetting themselves over a certain age, what do you do? This jam packed episode continues over on www.patreon.com/irishmanabroad.

Here are Tina's questions:

Question 1- 

A mom gets in touch about her thrill seeking daughter and how stressful it is to manage her kid's cowgirl dreams. Jarlath gets super honest about his feelings towards ponies and horses and once I catch my breath from laughing, we try and come up with a plan. 

Question 2. 

What do you do if your son’s teacher is being "extra mean" to him and taking away lunchtimes, isolating him from his friends? How can you help your child survive his days at school? Can you reach out to the teacher in an attempt to get her to change her ways?

Question 3. 

It’s hard to believe that some parents walk out on their families but unfortunately this is a reality that some children have to learn to live with. Rejection affects us all in different ways. In this case a little eight year old boy has started to wet and soil himself. A very worried mom gets in touch begging for help. We think this regression in toilet training is a result of another behavioural factor. If we can guide this mom is surviving this storm hopefully we can get her boy back to himself soon.
