<p class="">This episode is different from any of our previous episodes. It’s also a do-over, because the first version of this episode overlooked the fact that my daughter is growing up, fast. She’s almost a teenager, and we both agree that it’s time she took charge. So that’s what she did. <strong> </strong><a href="https://gendermom.wordpress.com/2020/11/02/mom-learns-a-lesson/">(Here’s a little more about how this episode came to be.) </a> </p>
