Summary

Today, we're answering a question posed by a recent viral video: Do stay-at-home mothers need to be intellectually stimulating? Or is this idea just rooted in girlboss feminism? We share some insight and also give some tips on how to answer your kids' hard theological questions. And Christianity Today editor in chief Russell Moore is back with another article about toxic empathy, but he still fails to square it with Christian morality. Lastly, the Met Gala is also back with outfits galore, some classy, others not so much, and we're rating the best and worst looks of the night.
