Bumpie Group Chat: Gen Muir has joined the chat, vaping vs. old school smoking, teenage shenanigans and your date horror stories

We couldn’t go to Sydney without popping in to see our favourite parenting expert, Gen Muir, in the studio! We quiz Gen on her own personal experience of raising tween and teen boys before she joins in for our normal Bumpie Group Chat chats. This really was Beyond the Chaos! We discuss…

Teenage sons and growing water bills
Vaping, masturbation and approaching big topics with our kids
Did the old cigarette scare tactics work?
The rollercoaster of Year 9
What does the research say on letting your kids have alcohol?
Sophie and Jayde’s unhinged romantic fails
Bumpies share their *crappy* date stories
How can we not be scared when our partner is away overnight?
