School Shorts · Why Kids Need Boundaries with Gen Muir · 28 Jun 2026 podcast

So that may be your first introduction to Jen.

That book was called Little People, Big Emotions.

And she has a new book coming up, which is called Why Kids Need Boundaries.

My first introduction was also to the high-low buffalo talking strategy as a family.

It has been

transformative really for having dinner table conversations in our family so I wanted to share that but also talk about her upcoming work so here is Jen Muir.

Jen, thank you so much for joining us.

I have followed your content and your interviews elsewhere for a long time and also your book.

So I'm really excited to introduce those people who haven't perhaps come across you before.

And can we talk about your previous book, which has been a huge hit with parents?

before we get into your new work.

So can you tell us about Little People, Big Feelings and just why that message of connectedness is one that you feel is so important?

I mean, I don't love hacks, but it is a hack.

It is a parenting hack, you know.

If something is easier, then I guess it is a hack.

But that is such a beautiful summary of your previous book and the work that you do.

And I just want to take you back, too, because what I especially loved was you saying that this is –

what you've written is kind of different from those baby books when you read them and you think you're kind of full of these ideas of what kind of parent you'll be and the the rules and boundaries that you'll set in place that you will never step over and the things you will never do as a parent and then you come to have children that have grown up a little and then you go oh my goodness i never

thought about what I would do if I was presented with this challenge or this challenge, and it's actually not as controllable or manageable as I thought it might have been.

So yeah, I think that's what I love about that book too, is that it does acknowledge the messy bits and the bits where you have to reconsider
