  • Dirty Laundry
    Dec 2 2019

    Would you let your 8-year-old do your laundry? A new study has said that kids as old as 8 should be helping their parents out. But Michelle thinks this is a bit risky.


    Plus, what have you stolen from your kids without them knowing? And how do you bring the romance back into your relationship?


    These are the questions that Amy and Michelle tackle this week on Flawsome.
