  • Quartz talks about a short film shown at October’s TED women’s conference — six working women were asked “what productive, mind-centering things they would do if they could somehow add more hours to each day.”
  • The New York Times shares a story and slideshow about a family with quadruplets in upstate New York.
  • A mother writes in the Washington Post’s On Parenting that she’s glad her daughter skipped a grade.
  • I think Captain Obvious wrote the headline for this NPR story: “Poverty Wages For U.S. Child Care Workers May Be Behind High Turnover.” (Is there a lot of turnover at your kids’ daycare?)
  • A Hellobee blogger writes about her family’s favorite 50 (!) picture books.
