Speaker 1 (00:12):
I heard podcasts year more kiss podcasts, playlists and listen
live on the Free.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Now with Coos the podcast.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
I remember when my oldest son was going to school
is because of course school is kicks off tomorrow morning.
That this time, I don't know what five, six, seven
years ago, I was like packing plastic containers of food,
and I remember when I picked him up, all those
plastic containers remained untouched. Yeah right, yes, okay, yeah, what's
a complete waste of times? Fun?
Speaker 3 (00:48):
It's fun seeing you'll see teenagers at Woolies and Coal's
today walking around doing their very first grocery shop, going
do we need sauce?
Speaker 1 (00:59):
How many packets of chips? Yeah, it's just like five
lives of bread butter and yeah, yeah there's that too.
But a friend of mine and I found this out
during the week. A friend of mine is going down
to schoolies and she claims her daughter has told her
that she wants her mother there, so she's rented a
(01:20):
unit where her daughter and three friends are staying. But
the mom is there the whole time.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
I don't think.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
No, Now, your friend lied. Well, I've heard of helicopter parenting,
and I don't know if that's the worst I've heard about.
Speaker 3 (01:37):
You do hear about mothers and daughters being best friends
mean that maybe.
Speaker 1 (01:42):
You're not asking your mom to come. I just I
can't imagine that my boys would rather have died.
Speaker 5 (01:52):
Seriously, Yeah, I would have said you go, I'll stay
home in mind the house.
Speaker 1 (01:56):
Yeah, in our team because a lot of people have
had very different schoolies experience, So producer Maddie, you weren't
even allowed to go?
Speaker 2 (02:07):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (02:07):
Correct.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
You brought this up earlier, and I immediately said to you,
my mom wouldn't let me go to schoolies unless her
or my friend who I was going to schoolies with
their mom were based in the Gold Coast.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
So I, yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
In the vicinity. It was actually in the same apartment building.
So I negotiated with mum. I was allowed to go
for three days if my best friend, Riley's mom came
and stayed in the same apartment building as us, but
in a different room. That's how I negotiated my school.
Speaker 1 (02:41):
Did you check in with her? Yeah, yeah, we did.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Check in she like you know, we went out for
breakfast with her, and we tried our best to pretend
we weren't hungover and everything.
Speaker 1 (02:50):
I mean, if you want them to pay for everything.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
Did she pay for breakfast?
Speaker 6 (02:55):
Lease?
Speaker 1 (02:55):
I think she did. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Do you know what was so funny? And I didn't
say this earlier, but my mom didn't want me to
go to school. He so badly that she offered to
pay for me to go to Paris with her instead
dangled and I said no because I didn't want to
miss out on this rite of passage and said, well,
I'm not happy with you going, so we had to negotiate.
Speaker 1 (03:17):
Yeah, and Alana, your mom took a different take.
Speaker 5 (03:21):
Well, it was kind of similar. It was you're not
going to school is unless I'm in the vicinity. And
I was like, well, what does that mean? And she
went through and found out that you can volunteer with
the police, and she became like basically like a Red
Frogs but with the police. So she's walking around in
a vest like helping kids on a street. And it
honestly felt like it was like constant anxiety because I'd
(03:44):
have friends texting me and be like, I just saw
your mum on Cavil Avenue and I'd been with my friends, guys,
we're going back, like we A'm not going down there?
And I ran into her twice across the week because
she was there and my friends were you know, no
underage drinking around here. So but my friends, you know,
they read into her and they'd be like, oh my god,
I saw her multiple times.
Speaker 3 (04:05):
Did she try and sort of catch it is that
she was just really wanted to be a volunteer about
the kids.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
Look she did.
Speaker 5 (04:12):
I was the first of my siblings to go to schoolies.
And then to her credit, she did volunteer the next
year as well when she had no kids. But then
she also volunteered the next year when my brother went.
Speaker 6 (04:23):
Ok yeah, suspiciously, it's my volunteering urge has left me
now my children have grown.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
Yeah, okay, I want to know thirteen one oh sixty
five schooly chaperoning? Is it okay? Or what did you do?
Speaker 3 (04:40):
Yeah? What deal did you cant?
Speaker 6 (04:41):
Yeah? Did you ruin the relationship between you and your
daughter or some I wonder if there's.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
A difference between mothers of sons and mothers of daughters.
Speaker 3 (04:52):
Or I wonder if any dads have managed to get
themselves into schoolies and then did they behave We're talking
about schoolies because it kicks off today. Everyone out there
getting amongst it.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
There's no fever or the worst.
Speaker 3 (05:10):
Always the worst, and parents are getting involved. Some parents
are inviting themselves.
Speaker 1 (05:19):
Last Jeff of Kabulcher, Hello Jeff.
Speaker 4 (05:23):
Good morning guys. Here going.
Speaker 1 (05:26):
You are a single dad of how many four children?
Speaker 4 (05:31):
Four kids and one set of triplets?
Speaker 1 (05:35):
What wow?
Speaker 3 (05:36):
Okay? And so when the triplets, when it was time
for the triplets to go to schoolies, what did you do?
Speaker 4 (05:43):
Oh yeah, we had a great shadow all about it.
They all had different groups of friends, they all stayed
in different places. They went down at the Gold Coast,
and I thought they had a great time, like a
little bit bored at the end of it. Fig them
up early. And you know, one came home with an earring.
One came home with a broken ankle. One came home
(06:04):
with a smile.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Okay, girls are boys, Jeff.
Speaker 4 (06:09):
Two boys for the girl.
Speaker 6 (06:11):
And then a guess.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
One came home with an earring. That'd be a boy,
Yeah that was that was okay, the smile. Then that
was obviously one.
Speaker 6 (06:22):
Of the boys.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Boys, one of the boys. And how did the other
boy get the broken ankle?
Speaker 4 (06:27):
Well, he thought he'd do a bit of a jump
from the footpath down to the beach and the sand
had come up to the steps and step.
Speaker 3 (06:42):
So it looked like it was gonna be soft sand.
But there's concrete steps under it.
Speaker 5 (06:47):
It's a good lesson for him.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
He was very luck He was very lucky. A couple
of girls gave it sympathy.
Speaker 3 (06:55):
It was really good, pretty good result. Jayden came through
on the text line as well. Four nine nine seven
three nine seven three if ever you want to send
us a text. I'm twenty three now. But when I
went to schools our parents offered to pay for it
all if they could come a chaperone. We said no,
and pay for it ourselves. That's about your.
Speaker 1 (07:17):
Money, okay, be safe schooling. Yeah, have a great time,
have a great time. Don't give your parents any more
gray hair.
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Before you jump off any footpaths down on the sand,
make sure it's checked for concrete underneath.
