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

As a kid were you envious of any TV families? Maybe you just wanted to be in the Brady Bunch or maybe you loved Jonathon Taylor Thomas? 

On today's episode, we're taking a trip down memory lane. We asked you, what were the fictional families you looked up to as a kid, and if has it influenced how you parent?

Plus this week's listener dilemma, should daycare ever give your kid an IPad? 

THE END BITS

RECOMMENDATIONS: 

This week Leigh recommends In Her Element Picnic Rugs and Tegan recommends a  Kmart Beach Trolley.
