How many times as a parent or caregiver have you stressed out not knowing how to handle a situation? (Ran out of fingers and toes to count here!) Questions about curfews, social media rules, whether we are being too strict or not strict enough, or even dealing with a toddler meltdown can make us worry if we're doing or saying the right things. The reality is even the moms, dads, caregivers who look like they have it figured out really don’t. There is so much self-doubt that comes with being a parent. We don’t get a ‘How To’ guide after all. Each week on Raising Me, Emmy-award winning journalist and mom of 3 Adrienne Stein will talk with the experts about what we’re all navigating with our children. Things like dealing with bullies, fear around school threats, figuring out how and when to effectively discipline, and how to talk with our kids about money, especially when difficult choices need to be made. We'll learn simple and practical ways to be a better parent and person. Follow along for the new episode dropping every Tuesday morning. Welcome to Raising Me!

In honor of April being National Financial Literacy Month, we're revisiting an episode from last year - Money Mindset: Allowance Answers. In this episode, Adrienne speaks with financial expert Mary Dyer about figuring out allowance for your kids. From how much should it be to what chores they should earn allowance for, plus, what our guest says is the *most important thing* when it comes to allowance. They discuss how much should kids earn, what should they earn money for and what should just be considered household chores, and what about those little purchases that seem like no big deal at the store, when should you float them some cash. These are all questions we can face every day as parents as we try to set our kids up for financial success.
You may remember Mary Dyer from our previous "Money Mindset" episode. Mary is the Financial Education Program Manager at the Finance Authority of Maine, also known as FAME. She’s also navigated these same challenges with her own kids, too.
