What The Parent?Author: PJ and Cara
We're not your average parenting podcast. And we don't have your average guests. We interview zookeepers (because talking to our teens sometimes feels like trying to wrestle a lion in its habitat), ringside announcers (arent parents everywhere taking one on the chin?), FBI hostage negotiators (to help us successfully negotiate a clean room), and many more. Because parenting is hard, and we want to make it easier with any advice we can get. Language: en-us Genres: Kids & Family, Parenting Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

How to Support our LGBTQ+ Kids: A Conversation with Youth Outlook's Carolyn Wahlskog
Episode 4
Wednesday, 21 June, 2023
We celebrate pride month with a conversation with Carolyn Wahlskog, LCSW (she/her), the Director of Operations and Programming at Youth Outlook, a nonprofit working to meet the ever-evolving needs of LGBTQ+ youth, families and communities. We ask her how to support our LGBTQ+ kids, how we, as parents, can best handle conversations around LGBTQ+ issues, and how best to address the delicate moment when a teen or tween decides to come out.
