Ash has made another grand purchase this week (must be nice!), and it's taken him many years to get to this point.

He also took Oscar and Macy to a Manly Sea Eagles game, and let's just say it was a new experience for his little girl.

The Johnson's nip up to Cairns to enjoy a last-minute holiday as a family of four before it becomes five! The kids, of course, relished every moment (not).

We also answer your questions:

• Is it okay to dislike your friend's kid?
• What is the most unhinged thing that’s happened to you as a parent?

Matty J and Ash are twinning this episode after making a big boy purchase in the hope of solidifying their masculinity (For the record, there's no such thing as buying your way to masculinity!)

Setting the side the purchase for a moment, Matt has become more primal during the family holidays down in Ulladullah. Spearfishing, cooking and oh, believing he's a tradie when he is, in fact, nowhere near a professional.

Oscar is causing toilet mayhem in the Wicks household and dad's copping the blame. Why? Well, Ash is overloading him with toilet instructions and it's confusing the boy!

We also get into your Par-Rants for this week, where you air out your parenting grievances.

We also answer your questions:

• Things parents would never say
• What age do you think is appropriate for a child to have a TV in their bedroom?

Hugo Toovey is a bloke who’s been through more than most of us could ever imagine and somehow still keeps moving forward.

An army man, two-time cancer survivor, and the founder of 25StayAlive (a movement urging young people to get checked before it’s too late), Hugo opens up about what life really looks like behind the scenes.

We get a glimpse into his world as a dad to 16-month-old Teddy while juggling surgeries, hospital visits, and all the quiet battles most people never see.

Hugo talks about what it’s like trying to start a family when nothing goes to plan, why early detection matters, and how fatherhood has shifted his perspective on, well… everything.
