Bill Belew has raised 2 bi-cultural kids, now 34 and 30. And he and his wife are now parenting a 3rd, Mia, who is 8.

The Japanese say 夫婦喧嘩は犬もう食わない.

It is translated – even a dog won’t interfere with a couple’s fight.

Closely related is that nobody will interfere with parents on how to raise their kids. Almost.

My daddy thinks some parents are definitely in need of a time out.

There’s a 10-part series on these parents.

Here they are:

When do Parents Need a Time Out? | How to Carry a Child Safely … not!

When do Parents Need a Time Out? | Red Neck Child Leash

When do Parents Need a Time Out? | Shopping for Baby
