This week, Dr. Becky explores the complex topic of punishment in parenting, and addresses the skepticism surrounding the idea of raising well-behaved children without resorting to taking their dessert or iPad away.

Let's be honest: parenting is expensive, especially around the holidays. And Dr. Becky hears all the time from parents that there are so many things they want to do that just don't fit into their budget, and it can feel kind of powerless. And then, once the holidays are over, they still end up having spent more than they usually do and feel stressed and behind. So now that the holidays are behind us, she wants to share an idea for a way to make some extra income in 2025…Hosting on Airbnb.
