Déjà’s First Solo Flight + The Internet’...

About this episode
Kat let 14-year-old Déjà fly solo to Dallas — and the internet went OFF. From trolls dragging Kat’s parenting to Déjà’s gate-changing chaos, lost-passport scare, and secret concert entrance (!!), the girls spill everything: flying alone, trust between parents and teens, and why American airports hit different. So… is solo travel at 14 a parenting fail or just growing up?
