Tom and Malorie Episode 36

What if the most “normal” parenting advice is actually harming your child?
In this video, we explore one of the most common parenting techniques—sleep training—and the dark truth behind it that no one talks about.

We share our raw, personal story as parents who followed the rules... until we realized the cost.
Alongside it, we dig into the forgotten history of sleep training, and the surprising influences that shaped how we raise our kids today.

We also took on one question that haunts so many parents:

  • The emotional cost many families don’t see until it’s too late
  • What signs we saw in our child
  • And what we’re doing differently—starting now
