When Diet Culture Comes For Your Kid
 
“I tossed the mini bag of Skittles leftover from Halloween into my daughter's lunchbox, nestled next to a scrap of paper with the joke of the day hastily written in sharpie,” writes Molly Wadzeck Kraus today. “Patting myself on the back for being the world's coolest mom, I headed upstairs to drag my kids — still exhausted from trick-or-treating — out of bed for school. That afternoon when they got home, my daughter came storming in, incensed. ‘Kids at school today were telling me Skittles are poison!’” What are you even supposed to say to something like that? Well, how Molly handled it.

My Kids Are Too Big For Christmas Magic, And It Kinda Kills Me
 
Katie Bingham-Smith likes to go BIG every year at Christmas. But the thing is? Her kids are suddenly old enough to disagree: “I have this vision of gifts flowing from under the tree out into the living room every year. And every year, I have spent too much time and money getting things for my kids they don’t even want for Christmas. But now, they’re old enough to put their feet down — and it’s a hard thing to accept.”
