On this week’s episode, Rebecca and Carvell are joined by Isaac Butler of Slate’s Lend Me Your Ears podcast to answer the question that has been tearing the Slate Parenting Facebook community apart: Should we allow a grandma to name herself “Nema”? Plus: parental commiseration, single weekend potty training, and more. And on Slate Plus this week, another question about how to model values for your kids that you don’t actually live day-to-day.
