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!

We all want to raise good kids.

But do you ever worry that maybe you're raising an asshole?

On today's show, Holly and Andrew discuss if raising an asshole is avoidable or if as parents, maybe we will never truly know if we've raised an asshole until someone else points it out. 

And on parenting mentors, should you ever intervene when your friend's kid is acting up? 

THE END BITS
