What I Said When I Had The OTHER Talk With My Black Daughter
 
"This is the story of why I told off a six-year-old," declares Helena Andrews-Dyer in an excerpt we've got today from her new book, THE MAMAS: What I Learned About Kids, Class, and Race from Moms Not Like Me. Obviously, you want to know more, and your heart will break for her friendly kid, Sally, when you read this tale of playground exclusion: "She looked at my daughter, my radiant child, as if she were radioactive, immediately running in the opposite direction whenever Sally got close." 

Hope your post-Labor Day reentry was smooth and you were tired of the pool anyway,

SIBLING BONDING
I Finally Learned I Have To Give My Kids Space To Make Memories Without Me
 
Today, Katie Bingham-Smith is reflecting on a recent moment when her kids were sitting out in the yard, laughing and talking without her: "I fought the urge (more than once) to go out there and join them. The voice in my head was telling me to go out there and be with my kids and enjoy the evening with them. Since they are all teenagers, their days with me are ticking by."
