Tim and Bonnie discuss Bonnie's daughter Raina's social life, a neighbor calling about a nine-year-old's "boyfriend," and cruel parents who used to gatekeep which kids were allowed to play with their kids.
- 9:44Tim's daily practice: try to do one nice thing a day, and it has to be genuinely difficult.
- 10:17A neighbor called to tell him she'd met his nine-year-old daughter's boyfriend.
- 10:28Tim admits he's in denial about his daughter having crushes and doesn't want to meet the kid.
- 10:50Parents who push their kids to be popular will mock other children, then later have their own problems.
- 11:18When Raina's friends come over they completely ignore Tim and shut the door in his face.
- 11:39Tim says he won't be the cool mom in high school because he's already relinquishing parental duties daily.
