I’m convinced that 70% of contemporary parenting is just walking around the house, looking at things, and saying, “Why is this HERE?”

I just popped up on my tween’s favorite YouTube channel, and I may as well quit now because I’ll never be this cool to her again.

One minute you don’t understand our culture’s obsession with sports, and the next you’re driving your kid to an out-of-state tournament where you find yourself erupting in bizarre utterances like, “Clear it!” and “Let’s go, D!” 🤷‍♀️🏑

Nobody ever talks about the dark side of monitoring your tween’s group chats, which is that you have to wade through pages of comments about Roblox and kids just saying “GM”, “GN”, and “Bruuuuuh” to each other for eternity.

Is there a term for feeling like you’re being gaslit because you’re the only one who knows the correct rules at a 4-way stop?

You know you’re raising a Jersey girl when you ask her how she’s doing with her homework, she says “I’m halfway there!” and without looking at each other you both sing “Whoaaah livin’ on a prayer.”

I feel like such a fraud because the premise of my last book was that reality TV has something to teach us, YET years of watching “Dance Moms” and “Toddlers and Tiaras” have failed to adequately prepare me to do stage hair.

I recently went on the Behavior Bitches podcast to talk about why we're so obsessed with reality TV. You can check out the interview here! youtube.com/watch?v=OpiT-g…

There should be some sort of Olympics of Parenting, featuring events such as: “Buy a birthday present for your child’s classmate, armed only with the information that she ‘likes fish memes.’”

Preschool teacher: You’re back! What did you do on your vacation? My 4-year-old: I rided escalators! CLASSIC.

You know what’s great for your fashion confidence? When you’re trying on summer outfits and your tween keeps saying, “Umm, I think you could wear that to sleep in.”

Are you Team Chelley or Team Huda? I recently spoke to the The New York Times about our cultural obsession with the show Love Island. You can check out the piece here: nytimes.com/2025/07/07/sty…

I recently spoke to GQ Magazine about why men watch #LoveIslandUSA. Here's the piece! gq.com/story/the-boyf…

I'm in the The New York Times today, talking about MTV's "Road Rules" (remember that?!) and the rise of the political right. nytimes.com/2025/07/16/sty…

The wildest thing about that couple at the Coldplay concert is that Trump campaigned on releasing the Epstein files and now won't for some reason.

Things I've said to my kids this week: "You can't take a book on the water slide! Look what happened last time!" "Stop arguing about which of you would be Raymour and which would be Flanigan!" "For the last time, I don't know if the Grimm Brothers were gay!"

Almost missed this neat shout-out to my book in the Sunday The New York Times!

I'll be on air LIVE on the Colin McEnroe show on Connecticut Public Radio today from 1:06-1:26pm, talking about the link between reality TV and contemporary politics. ctpublic.org/show/the-colin…
