Also, not every essay will be relatable. We don’t all experience the same things, so it’s only natural some essays will touch you very profoundly and others not at all. That said, don’t discredit the essays you can’t relate to as bad writing.

We put mothers on this pedestal… we make motherhood nearly compulsory but then dehumanize mothers so that if they’re not perfectly nurturing and perfectly selfless and perfectly content in motherhood, they’re monsters. I love the care many of these writers took to show understanding that their moms are just people, too.
I don’t recommend this book generally but specifically: read only if you’re experienced holding strangers’ pain without harm to yourself. Four taters 🥔🥔🥔🥔/🥔🥔🥔🥔🥔
