SOMETHING'S GOTTA GIVE
Can We Stop Inviting The Whole Class To The Birthday Party? ([link removed])
Samm Davidson is here today with a simple plea. She writes: “It’s 10am on a Thursday morning and a text flashes across my screen as I scramble to put the last of the groceries away.

I freak out a little and frantically search my email for the invitation I definitely forgot about and haven’t responded to.”
It’s nothing against this poor kid; it’s simply the scheduling chaos of parenting. And today, she’s begging her fellow parents to dial it back. Give it a read and see if you agree.

“Like so many of us, I started using social media about 10 years ago to share my life and work,” writes Katie Bingham-Smith. “But nearly a year ago, after my youngest son told me I was on my phone too much, I took a break from social media for a week.” And now she’s talking about what happened next.
