This week on Can You Say Mama, we’re tackling the hot-button issues that ignite the fiercest debates among parents. From delayed breastfeeding and child leashes to the pros and cons of homeschooling, join us as we dive into the 10 most controversial parenting topics. Whether you’re a new parent, a seasoned veteran, or just interested in the dynamics of modern parenting, this episode promises insights, arguments, and maybe even a few surprises.
We start with a look at delayed breastfeeding, discussing the reasons some parents choose to wait, the backlash they might face, and the why behind the decision. Then, we clip on the child leashes—figuratively speaking! Are they a practical safety measure or an unnecessary restraint? We unpack the emotional and practical sides of this divisive topic.
Next, we explore the ever-growing trend of homeschooling. What drives a parent to take their child’s education into their own hands? How does it benefit or challenge the child compared to traditional schooling? 
But that’s just the beginning. We'll also delve into topics like ear piercing in babies, natural vs c-section births, weaning, and co-sleeping. Each topic is loaded with expert opinions, anecdotal experiences, and perhaps a few heated moments.
Tune in to Can You Say Mama as we navigate the complex waters of parenting in today’s world, breaking down each controversy with thoughtful commentary and diverse viewpoints.

This week on Can You Say Mama, we dive into some of the most intriguing trends and tough decisions facing modern families. Join us as we explore the complex landscape of push presents, surrogacy, and the emotional aspects of genetic testing.
We kick off the episode with a lively discussion on the rising trend of push presents. What are they, and why have they become such a hot topic among new parents? We'll look at the most popular gifts, share personal stories, and debate whether this trend is a meaningful gesture or just another commercial expectation. 
Next, we tackle a deeply personal and provocative question: What would you do if you were asked to be a surrogate, or if you needed one yourself? From the emotional bonds to the legal logistics, we explore the realities of surrogacy. 
Finally, we delve into the decision-making process behind genetic testing before or during pregnancy. With advances in medical technology, prospective parents can now learn more about their future children than ever before, but this knowledge comes with its own set of challenges. We discuss the pros and cons, the moral quandaries, and the personal stories that highlight the impact of these decisions on real families. 
Whether you're navigating these decisions yourself or just curious about the modern parenting landscape, this episode of Can You Say Mama promises to enlighten, engage, and offer diverse perspectives on some of today’s most talked-about topics.

This week on Can You Say Mama, we dive deep into the world of solo parenting, toddler trials, and the inevitable mom drama that comes with it. Join us as we explore the highs and lows of managing the home front alone while partners are away, teaching little ones about boundaries, and navigating the tricky waters of family and school politics.
First up, we tackle the challenges of solo parenting. Sacha is solo parenting for the week and handling everything alone can be daunting. We share what shes getting up to while she counts down the days until Sheldon returns and what he's away doing!
Next, we move on to the art of dealing with toddlers who just won't listen. Setting boundaries is crucial, but it's no easy feat. From choosing battles wisely to consistency without frustration, we discuss strategies to help your toddlers learn limits and understand the importance of following rules. Will it work? Nobody knows!
Lastly, we spill the tea on mom drama. Every parent knows it's not just the kids who can stir up trouble—sometimes the adults are the culprits. We're talking over-the-top mother-in-laws who think they're still running the show, and the dynamics of PAC groups that can feel more like a high school clique than a team effort. 
Pour yourself a coffee (or something stronger!), and tune in to Can You Say Mama for an episode packed with real stories, heartfelt advice, and a few laughs to help you get through the parenting jungle. Whether you're a solo parent by circumstance or by the day's end, we're here to support you through it all!
