Welcome to This Glorious Mess Big Kids. A twice-weekly look at parenting as it really is. Confusing, exhausting, inspiring, funny, and full of surprises. So many surprises.

“Being a parent is like running the World’s Most Ungrateful Hotel. A hotel where you are the manager, all the housekeeping, reservations, maintenance, help desk, maitre’d, chef, washer-upper and customer complaints department’ - Julia Morris

Julia Morris has a hilarious and interesting philosophy when it comes to parenting. 
She believes in underparenting, that only 3% is worthwhile and the other 97% is just terrible. She joins us to talk about her new book, Julia Morris Makes It Easy, life in the jungle and raising teenage girls.  

Plus, a listener asks for our help. How do I stop my kids from fighting?
