In this special episode, Tara sits down with her son, Jack, to revisit a heartfelt conversation they first had five years ago for her book Modern Mom Probs: A Survival Guide for 21st Century Mothers. Now older and wiser, Jack shares his honest take on what it really means to raise well-rounded kids. From screen time to social skills, he talks about why balance and moderation matter and how parents can help their children grow while still setting healthy boundaries. Tara also reads a sweet moment from the original interview, where she asked Jack, “What advice would you give mommies to be good mommies?” Tune in for a thoughtful (and funny!) look at parenting through a child's eyes.
