This week’s episode is part back-to-school survival guide, part summer highlight reel, and part investigation of parenting double standards. We reflect on the chaos and joy of crisscrossing the country on book tour with three kids, what we learned about road-tripping as a family, and why hiking with toddlers is best done with candy.

Also why do dads traveling with kids get treated like heroes while moms get judged?

Plus: the reality of childcare, the myth of “parenting experts,” and what it really takes to keep all the balls in the air as working parents.
