Parenting Rules You Never Thought You’d Need

There are parenting moments no book could possibly prepare you for. Like discovering your kid has been cooking ramen noodles in the bathtub.

This week, Andrea welcomes a token dad to Moms Unhinged. Comedian Dominic Syracuse is raising three teenage boys in a blended family—and has the very specific household rules to prove it.

Dominic and Andrea swap stories about the things kids do that leave you wondering how you're supposed to respond like a responsible adult. From watching your kids suddenly grow up to creating rules you never imagined you'd need, it’s a reminder that there really is no way to prepare for everything parenting throws at you.

Plus, Dominic shares how teaching acting in maximum-security prisons unexpectedly led him to stand-up comedy—and why telling his own unhinged parenting stories gets other parents to share theirs.

Because every family has at least one story that makes you think, “Surely this only happened in my house.”

Now we want to hear yours: What’s the weirdest rule you’ve ever had to make because of something your kid did? Send us a voice note on SpeakPipe. Your story might make it onto the podcast. https://www.speakpipe.com/MomsUnhingedPodcast
