There’s a lot of talk about mom groups and mom friends. But today Sumitra Mattai is talking about another core contingent of her village: young women who don’t have kids. “At first I assumed I was more of a mentor.

And in fact, the distinction often allowed me to be more open about my experiences.”

Give it a read, and see if you agree.
