Other moms trigger back-to school anxiety for parents, family estrangement on the rise and parents responsible for the their kids' crimes.

Back to school season has a way of bringing out *all* of the emotions. Yet, what if you feel anxious not on behalf of your kids, but because of other moms? What do do when it seems like all of the other parents have it together (they don't) and you're failing (you're not). The AnchorMOMS get emotional this episode. Plus, more and more people are becoming estranged from family members. What experts say is the reason behind the uptick and why one writer says it's liberating. Lastly, can and should parents be held responsible for the crimes of their kids? It's a topic that is increasingly in the spotlight as gun violence takes center stage across the nation.  MUMS the Word: Hair Wax Find us on Apple Podcast, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.
