Did you grow up in a home with a favourite child? Do you secretly favour one of your own kids? We unpack the expert opinions and whether or not parental favouritism actually matters in the long run.
Plus, we deep-dive into Jennifer Lawrence's recent The New Yorker profile where she shares what her life looks like postpartum and how returning to work has left her feeling like a fundamentally different person. Relate, much?
And, from Jennifer Aniston opening up about adoption to Hailey Bieber sharing the secret that helps her raise her son, it seems like the A-listers are finally peeling back the curtain on the unvarnished truth about having kids.
Our Recommendations:
📺 Stacey is obsessed with the new show Building The Band.
🎲 Monz recommends the simple but powerful children's game Spot It! — a secret weapon of OTs and speech therapists for motor skills and focus.
📰 Amelia is desperate for you to read the Jennifer Lawrence Profile so you too can join the conversation.
