New here? Read these.
If you’re new here, read the posts that [evidently] suck less than the others. If they don’t make you want to call CPS, we could probably be friends.
Anyway, here are the most popular posts I’ve written (more or less in order):
BY FAR the most popular post I’ve ever written (and the only one to go sorta viral) is “I became a mother, and died to live.” I was famous for like 7 minutes. Maybe even 8.
1. Caillou’s Plan to Ruin America.
2. It ain’t easy having one of “those” kids
3. The Holy Grail of Parenthood (and why you can keep it)
4. Mother Earth Called. She wants you to stop being such an asshole.
5. Playdate Calling Cards for the Rest of Us
8. Hey Time Magazine. Are you Man Enough?
9. Parenting in the Gray Area.
10.The Push Present Post (as Promised)
11. Yo, Hallmark, I got some Valentines for ya.
