These books are great classics, and may I also recommend It’s Not the Stork!: A Book About Girls, Boys, Babies, Bodies, Families and Friends.

Highly recommend these two classics:

As someone who

Since I was in a horribly intense fight this morning about red velvet cake, I want to point out that Sweet Lady Jane has amazing red velvet cupcakes, you haters.

Yes! People see my opinion of “no guns for anyone” as “extreme” but I work in public health and I have no idea why people think that something that has 0 advantage as owning a gun and lots of risks for the gun owner and his household members and even friends is seen as anything but a public health threat. I’m willing…

Your words are a tad harsh, but you’re tapping pretty hard into some musings of my own lately. I’m a parent of a young child, and my husband is a coach to a lot of young kids, so our whole trip lately is about not raising kids to think they’re “SPECIAL.” No one is objectively SPECIAL. Sure, my kid is special... TO ME,…

This is Terrorism and I would not be surprised if this garbage was born in the USA.

I found it really off putting how Charlie and Matt Lauer kept referring to “unsavory individuals”. Charlie Sheen is an unsavory individual with a terrible history towards women. But since he is not a sex worker or porn star, he is given the benefit of the doubt by far too many people.

He basically referred to his domestic violence cases as extortion as well. He seems to think that women holding him accountable for harming them is just them trying to steal his money.

I’m trying to wrap my flu ridden head around this. So Charlie Sheen’s story is that he is HIV positive, was totally upfront and honest with all his partners about his status and used protection, no HIV transmission? Where does the blackmail payouts come from then? Contact the authorities and tell them you are being…

If anything I am insanely jealous that you have Din Tai Fung and BCD Tofu House.

I am surprised that Cafe Gratitude in LA isn’t making customers use a crystal to decide what to order.

I’ve never read more poorly written, unprofessional emails from anyone over the age of 30 in my life. Her tone, her choice of words...just mortifying.

I think you mak a lot of good points. I do, however, think that including info about her partying with parents is relavent to the story. I have sent kids through two different daycares & it is bananas that an administrator would open the facility on a weekend to accomodate a bunch of parents getting tanked with the…

No, but they’re immediately downgraded when they use an apostrophe to pluralize a word.

Hi, RN here.

Fuck nursing. I mean, nurses are great. But much like teachers they are getting the shaft. My mom is an O.R. nurse. (And, frankly, a badass.) That profession ruined her body and has given her nothing in return. She’s in her 60s and only works part time these days (Thankfully, out of loyalty, not out of need. My dad…

I like and love my kid now, and I feel like myself again, even though this version of self is different. But so many people were so immediately able to declare “it was worth i and adjust so quickly (or claimed to). I just didn’t; it took me longer. But I don’t regret having my kid. I just didn’t know I wouldn’t be a…

Giving birth ripped me apart and destroyed my identity. I was 100% sure it was a mistake.nto have become a mother. I love that we can admit this now, that hormones are stronger than us and we might need time to adjust.
