About this listen

What happens when your child is labeled a "bully" at school, but you're the last to know about it? In this raw, eye-opening episode, we share our family's frustrating battle with a school system that keeps parents at arm's length while making accusations against our daughter.

The conversation exposes a troubling trend in modern education—how well-intentioned anti-bullying policies have morphed into bureaucratic nightmares that can be weaponized by students against their peers. "You are not having a closed door conversation with my minor child," becomes our battle cry as we navigate a system that seems designed to exclude parents from important disciplinary discussions.

We explore the breakdown of communication between schools and families, questioning when and why this shift occurred. Remember when teachers handled classroom conflicts directly? When parents were immediately contacted about behavioral issues? Those days seem long gone, replaced by counselor interrogations and delayed notifications—if parents are notified at all.

Beyond our parenting struggles, we lighten the mood with our infamous "Dating Denny Broens" segment, featuring three spectacularly questionable dating profiles that range from elf-eared mascara enthusiasts to bathroom selfie specialists. The competition for worst potential match reaches new heights (or perhaps depths) as we evaluate these romantic prospects.

Finally, our "Relationship Advice" segment tackles everything from post-pregnancy body image to mysterious underwear appearing in the laundry. With our trademark honesty, we cut through the relationship noise to deliver advice that's direct, practical, and occasionally brutal.

Whether you're a parent battling school bureaucracy, a single person navigating the treacherous waters of online dating, or someone seeking relationship clarity, this episode has something for you. Subscribe now and join the conversation—we'd love to hear your experiences with school policies and parenting challenges.
