RIDE ALONG CHRONICLES

By: Ride Along Chronicles
  • Summary

  • Welcome to our Podcast! We are 3 great friends who raised our families in the LEO lifestyle for over 20 years. Without realizing it, we ended up creating our own support system because the struggles of police families haven’t changed. We hope to bring those challenges to light by allowing our confidential guests to share what didn’t exist for us, a safe space to feel supported instead of alone. Our guests will openly share their journeys without identifying themselves, their first responder or agency. Our goal is to share lessons learned and provide helpful tools to keep first responder families in the front seat. Send us a confidential email to ridealongchronicles@gmail.com

  • Revisiting The Invisible Ones
    Nov 6 2024
    Today, in honor of Child Safety and Protection Month AND National Family Week, we wanted to revisit a topic we discussed with Monica in Episode 4 that often goes unnoticed when discussing the challenges of living in first responder families. They are the children of first responders; the invisible ones who often hear and see everything first responder couples share including the dark, scary and chaotic parts of this career. These children often experience emotional and physical reactions that go unseen and sometimes untreated for years. We have heard this from some first responder families over the past few years. In addition, we have learned that oftentimes first responders have a difficult time parenting and are blamed for being too protective and strict. However, these children don’t understand and are not explained that it’s likely because of the dangerous world their FR parent experiences everyday. Monica really put this topic into perspective for us. It reminded us all as first responder parents what our children may be experiencing and showed us the importance of ensuring that our children feel emotionally safe and not just physically. So come ride along with us!
