My coparent and I agreed on when our children would call me. A schedule because he said that I was interfering with his parenting time. Our children have long called me twice a day if I wasn't physically available to them. I understand how much my ex hates it, but hey, I hate things too - it is called putting our children first.

It Is Over. Content Warning.
For the people who are still in power, the truth is hard but simple: young people are no longer listening. This is not because they are lazy, careless, or disrespectful.

The Day the Stadium Felt Like Church
I wasn’t born into fandom. I was adopted into it. At ten years old, I didn’t understand offside rules or midfield rotations. I only knew that every Sunday, my grandfather would take my hand, walk me three blocks to the edge of the stadium, and sit with me on a cracked concrete step—just outside the gates, where the roar of the crowd bled into the street like a hymn.
