Yes, I Throw Away My Kid’s Art
[[link removed]] 
I’m sure you know them well: the stacks of paper that somehow accumulate around
the house from weekend coloring sessions and art class at school. Kids produce

out, and she doesn’t even hide it: “That's right. I openly throw away most of my
kid's artwork. Sometimes I even use it to fuel the bonfire for our weekend

She explains that it’s about more than just decluttering — there’s a lesson
involved. Free yourself from the pressure to hide scribble drawings under the
coffee grounds!

It Feels Like Everyone Is Non-COVID Sick Right Now. What Gives?
[[link removed]] 
Show of hands: How many of you know a bunch of people who are sick right now,
but keep testing negative for COVID-19? Not just colds and respiratory crud,
either. Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani did some investigating for Scary Mommy into
the impact of the last two years: “Have we, as some

anxiety-inducing headlines suggested, weakened our and our kids’ immune systems
by limiting their exposure over the last two years? Bluntly, is immunity ‘use
it, or lose it?’” Here’s what she found.
