I Decided To Feel Good About My Body

I Decided To Feel Good About My Body So My Kids Will Love Theirs

You guys loved a recent piece by TikTok creator Emily Feret, who likes to talk about "normalizing normal." Last time it was all about homes, and how we shouldn't compare our perfectly good, kinda messy living rooms to the aggressively curated spaces on Instagram and other social media outlets. "I think it's essential to show the unfiltered side of life on social media to let people know it's ok to find it beautiful too," she wrote.

Well, today, she's bringing that same refreshing approach to bodies. She writes: "Photoshop used to be reserved for models in magazines, but now even your neighbor down the street is posting filtered pictures, erasing fine lines, subtly shaping her waist, and whitening her teeth with built-in digital tools. How is anyone building a positive self image when our feeds are saturated with altered images?" It's one of the big questions we all face. So how's she answering it? Read to find out.

Thank God, My Kid Finally Gets Sarcasm

Alexandra Frost has reached a glorious milestone in her parenting career: Her oldest is now old enough to understand — and use! — sarcasm. "These types of interactions have led to a secret bond I don't yet have with my other children, an increased closeness that we can share now that our interactions aren't strictly serious, logistical, organizational, or even meaningful. Sometimes, we can just have fun together, in a somewhat snarky way." If you've got really little kids, it's a nice light at the end of the tunnel.
