You've politely clapped at the entire A-Z honor roll perfect attendance most improvement at your kiddos schools. But nobody's handing out trophies for the 3am wake-ups, the cold coffee, or the meltdown you talked someone down from while holding your own. 🏆

So we made some awards for YOU!

Swipe through the (totally unofficial) ETC 2026 End-of-Year Parent (Guardian, and Caregiver) Awards. Find the one with your name on it, because we all know you've earned it. And each award comes with a tiny way to actually take care of you for once.

Which one did you win this year? Tell us below. 👇

Your kid isn’t lying because they’re a bad kid. They’re lying because telling the truth doesn’t feel safe yet.

That’s not a character problem. It’s a connection opportunity.

Swipe through to see what’s actually happening in their brain when they lie — and what you can do about it. 👉

“I’m booooored.” 🫠 It’s day three of summer and you’ve already heard it 47 times.

Summer break is a gift and a marathon. Less structure can mean more meltdowns, more screen battles, and more of you wondering what on earth to do with these long, open days, especially for kids who feel safest when they know what’s coming next.

So we made you something. And it’s free. 🎉

Our Summer Survival Kit: a collection of practical tools, printables, activities, and connection resources designed to help your family navigate summer with confidence.

A little structure. A lot of connection.💗

Why do kids lie, even when the truth would have been easier? This week on the ETC Podcast, we’re replaying an oldie but a goodie: Let’s Talk About Lying with Robyn Gobbel.

Lying is usually about fear and felt safety, not character. This one will change how you respond. Listen at the link in bio 🔗 and tell us what you think!
