Bad kids ep drove a bunch of GREAT questions from parents and professionals. We answer lots of questions including: - How many chances can we give a bad kid when the behaviours are breaking us? - How do we make a positive influence when there is so much negative intergenerational experience? - How to manage bad behaviour without impacting the relationship? - How do we make it fair on the "good" kids in the classroom? - How can we make sure these kids will be ok when they become adults?

We’ve all heard the term “bad kid” before. In this ep, Dr Billy tells us why why he loves to work with these kids and recounts some lessons he’s learnt along the way. We use the emotional campfire scene from Stand By Me where River Phoenix shines (the scene is on our Instagram channel - @popcultureparenting). Nick also catches Billy off guard by nailing some psychology theory!
