The School Called About Our Son's Behaviour... And We Couldn't Stop Laughing

    Not In Front Of The Kids

    Thursday, 6 August 2026 - 51 minutes

    Nathan and Cara receive one of those phone calls from school every parent dreads... they however, doesn't think it's quite the scandal everyone else does. This week they're talking all things school! From chaotic mornings and WhatsApp parent groups to whether schools are actually preparing children for adult life, they ask if the education system has got its priorities right. They also debate whether taking your children out of school for Disneyland should really land parents with a fine, why homeschooling suddenly doesn't sound like such a crazy idea, and whether Nathan was undermined after catching his son sneaking onto the PlayStation at 11:30pm. Then, in The Courtroom, they deliver their verdict on a dad whose unusual punishment for bullying left his son in tears.
