Back-to-school season is here, and Jill, Melissa, and Kelly are diving into the chaos, memories, and everything that comes with getting kids back on a schedule! They debate the pros and cons of keeping kids busy—does a packed schedule keep them off their phones and out of trouble, or can it sometimes be too much?


They also take a trip down memory lane talking about the toys their kids grew up with and why LEGO has become such a huge obsession for kids and adults. 

Jill is still holding a grudge against Erno and refuses to talk to him, even though he’s trying to make peace. Plus, they share advice for those moments when you—or someone else—makes you feel like you’re not smart enough. Kelly opens up about having a slight learning disability her whole life and reminds everyone that learning differently doesn’t mean you aren’t smart—you’re just smart in different ways.
