The Next Family discussion this week is about Text Etiquette. The kids school the parents on what not to text about, when is texting too much, when you are getting ghosted, why putting periods in your texts is offensive and many more great conversations about when to use texting and how to best communicate.
The kids give their summer updates and this one of our first family podcasts recorded at 10PM! The family is silly- Penn became a psychic, Sophia tells crazy stories about her job, Bella is excited about camp, Susan realizes no one cares and Brandy has a new obsession.

The Next Family shares about their plans to travel to Europe this year after waiting for many years to travel to Paris and Portugal. We talk about how we all planned (including the kids) the family trip. MO gives tips on how to not get bitten by mosquitos (which usually don't work), Penn gives an update on his loose tooth and the twins' share about a truth that was revealed to them. Lies will be ruined. There will be a spoiler alert for young kids so you can pre-screen so that truths won't be revealed to them too. The girls debate a webcomic that they love. Sophia talks about her webcomic.

Sophia talks about the challenges of high school applications while Susan shares about bonding with Gary. Penn and Bella describe Stuffyland--the world of their stuffed animals when no one is around. Every stuffy that enters the house must go through the process of getting introduced to Stuffyland and every stuffy that leaves the house (to go to Goodwill) has a process of letting go which usually involves an accidental stuffy death or an illness. From a parent's standpoint it is fascinating to sit down and learn how important stuffed animals are to them and that each has an individual personality and a job and even an Instagram account. They share about the stuffyland government and the voting system.
This episode had the whole family laughing to tears. Susan and Brandy tell twin stories and share how Penn and Bella spoke in their own language as babies. The family closes with apples, peanut butter, giggles and crunching. All music is by Susan Howard (AKA MO)
