Dad Life 4-2: Kids, Classrooms, and Supporting Education 🎓📚

This week on DX, Sean and Nick dive into the world of education and parenting, comparing the differences between UK and US school systems—what’s a Year in the UK might be a Grade in the US! We chat about how parents can support teachers by reinforcing learning at home, managing screen time (especially before bed), and the positive impact it can have on kids’ focus and rest.
As husbands of educators, we also get personal, discussing the challenges teachers face, including dealing with disrespect in the classroom and the lack of tools available to address it effectively. With humor, heart, and plenty of relatable dad insights, this episode is a must-listen for parents navigating school life with their kids. Tune in for tips, laughs, and a shared appreciation for the unsung heroes of education!
