"We're expected to do our jobs as if we don't have children — and then raise our children as if we don't have jobs," (I'm super thankful to my amazing husband Alec and my fantastic employer for never putting me in this position.)

UPDATE: Join Official Brock Turner Rape Judge Recall Movement!!! - Sign the Petition!

Enough is enough with rape culture and white male privilege. Affluent jocks shouldn't get a free pass, and judges who let them off easy shouldn't get to keep their jobs.

The Families That Can’t Afford Summer

I'm not in favor of abolishing summer break because of all the professional development I know teachers do, and because it literally takes us all summer to prep for the new school year. However, I do believe we need funding for programs for kids to have fun, read, and be social during the summer. Gone are the days of my youth when my parents could just leave us home to fend for ourselves.

The Stanford Rapist’s Father Offers An Impossibly Offensive Defense Of His Son

This father's defense of his son's "action" is disgusting and truly reprehensible. So now sexual assault is not considered violence? It really helps give you context of you have first read the victim's letter that was read aloud in court in response to the feeble joke of a six month sentence.
