Should I Tattle On My Kids' Friends?
[[link removed]]
We all want our kids to trust us, to come to us with whatever tricky situation
they’re facing so we can talk it out. The problem is, sometimes that tricky
situation involves their friends. And then you’re in a real bind. “My kids and I
are close,” says an anonymous writer today. “They tell and show me a lot of
things. Sometimes they come to me for advice, and sometimes, they just need to
vent. More than once, that venting has consisted of showing me things their
friends are doing via their Snapchat, Instagram, or TikTok. And that has put me
in a challenging situation countless times.” So what do you do? Here’s how this
writer walks the line between their desire to keep their kids’ trust, and the
fact that sometimes, you need to say something.

Loud Mouse Is a Children’s Book You Shouldn’t Ignore
[[link removed]]
Children are small, and they’re often made to feel even smaller by forces
internal and external. Loud Mouse is a corrective to this unfortunate state of
affairs. Penned by Tony Award-winner Idina Menzel, the voice of Elsa from
Disney’s Frozen, along with acclaimed writer and teacher Cara Mentzel, it’s the
tale of a mouse who learns the value of taking up space and sharing her talents
with the world, a lesson all kids need to hear. It’s whimsically and beautifully
illustrated by Jaclyn Sinquett, whose detailed illustrations mean kids will find
something new the many times they reread this meaningful tale. But if rereading
isn’t enough, they can download a new song, “The Loud Mouse Song,” performed by
Idina, which reinforces the messages of empowerment and self-acceptance that
make Loud Mouse a new staple.
