I'm as vulnerable as anybody to the toxicity of the American nuclear family. But I wouldn't call it disease or moral failure as much as I would point the finger at a system that grinds people down like a metal file. Who doesn't need a drink? Who isn't going to crack and lash out at the people they love?
I had no idea that mothering my own child would be so healing to my own sadness from my childhood.
I think that you have to do everything you can do to empower girls when they are young, from their education, to their successful independence, to their sexual self-knowledge.
I'm like the kid in kindergarten I really do send valentines to everyone.
I'm a Mommy's Girl - the strongest influence in my young life was my mom.
