Moms, Leave Your Daughter's Unibrows Alone

"In my 13 years of parenting, I've spent no small amount of time in online parenting spaces — message boards, Reddit, Facebook — and I know by now what topics have proven to be boundless sources of discussion," writes our own Jamie Kenney. She continues: "Screentime, picky eating, flu vaccine, sure, but there's one niche subject that never fails to make a repeat appearance and hit me where I live: 'I feel guilty even writing this,' it often begins. 'But my daughter has a unibrow. Now that she's getting older it's more noticeable. I wonder if I should tweeze it or take her to get it waxed? I worry that if I don't do anything she'll get bullied. What would you do?'"

There's just one catch, she says. "I can appreciate the care these folks are bringing to the question. But as a former unibrow kid, I'm begging you: please don't be the one to bring up your daughter's unibrow."

Allow her to explain.

STOP YELLING
The Two Year Age Gap Is The Absolute Worst

"I remember watching my firstborn son waddle around the beach a few weeks after his first birthday. He wandered around the sand a bit before making his way over to a pair of brothers who were building a sandcastle," Samm Davidson writes. "The scene was one from a storybook: mom and dad sitting in their chairs enjoying some light conversation while their two sons, around 4 and 6 years old, worked together to create a creative and well-structured castle as they smiled and laughed. At that moment, the baby fever crept its way in, and I thought to myself, wow — two years really seems like the perfect age gap. And turns out boy, was I wrong."
