I suddenly feel naive for thinking that every mother—no matter how fulfilled or lonesome she may be— cannot wait for the day when her «perfect little Johnny» gets accepted into their dream school.

22-year-old recent grad spends 80% of their paycheck on rent, can’t understand how fellow professionals get by on entry-level pay: ‘How is this sustainable?’

It’s so common to see married people prioritized above single people that we don’t even give it a second thought.

Everyone knows you shouldn’t propose on your partner’s big day. You are a bad guy if you propose to your girlfriend at your brother’s wedding.

Parents skip 16-year-old son’s high school graduation because his sister went into labor, doesn’t give birth until 18 hours after the graduation: ‘They could have had at least had one of them stay with me’

No parent wants to have to choose between children during important in their lives.
