Raising children is inexplicitly hard. Imagine how hard it must be to have all these burdens AND have your children live with you full-time as a single parent. I’d love to read an article by your ex to hear about her trials as a single mother raising 3 children on one income, how she manages childcare issues, making…

This is a wonderfully written piece with a rather glaring error: you don’t owe your kids money, you owe it to the women who relied on their own income to clothe, house, and educate the children you love.

No matter the product, someone out there is going to react negatively to it. It really really sucks when that person is you, but it isn’t always the product’s fault. Eos is one of the few lip balms that doesn’t screw up my skin, interestingly. I’ve had horrendous reactions to several other skin products (the last one…

Burt’s Bees man, stick with Burt’s Bees.

The language of Black women and the language of Black Gay men in Atlanta intersects in so many ways.
