This week comedian and actress, Michelle Buteau joins Megan, Chris & Kurt. They love their kids…BUT they also LOVE using them as an excuse to get out of plans. Megan used her son this past week to get out of a friend’s party and then had an epiphany. Her own mother did the same thing when she was a kid! It’s the Gailey family tradition of blaming it on your kids! Also, Michelle Buteau, swings by with double the parenting struggle to vent about including the unsanitary roller coaster that is taking them to pee in a public bathroom, finding a babysitter (or babysitters) to watch two kids the same age at the same time, and the emotional toll splitting your twins up in school can take. 

And remember, you can call our hotline and leave us questions, comments, or your own funny, totally anonymous “Circle Time” parenting story at 424-570-KIDS or you can email us at Ilovemykid@wondery.com. Just don't forget to start your story with, “I love my kid, but…” and maybe we'll use yours on air!
