Summary
On this week’s episode: Elizabeth, Jamilah, and Zak advise a mom who is feeling hurt that her mother-in-law has swooped in and taken over traditional “mom moments” behind her back. Is there a way to politely tell her that she needs to stay in her own lane? Then the hosts share the most useful piece of advice they received this year. In Slate Plus, they play a round of holiday hot takes which includes the classic conundrum: should you just tell your kids Santa’s a myth?
Recommendations:
Naima recommends Roc, which you can watch on Pluto.
Henry recommends Nocs Provisions Zoom Tube.
Oliver recommends the app hoopla.
Teddy recommends Story Time Chess.
Noa recommends peeling grapes to make them juicer.
