All the parenting news you probably didn’t have time to read this week.
– A Texas woman gave birth to two sets of identical twins (that’s quadruplets, people) and in case you were wondering the chances of that, it’s “one in many, many millions.” (Health on Today)
– Watching Sesame Street instead of adult television can make kids less aggressive. Can we get a duh? (NYT)
– A look at Chelyabinsk, a strange town that saved one writer’s grandparents during the Holocaust, and then fell to meteor hellfire last week. (Forward)
Can we ask?
It's important to us to keep the warm, joyfully Jewish community on Kveller accessible for all. Reader donations help us do just that. Can you spare a few to keep Kveller free? (We'll love you forever.)
– We were very saddened to hear about the loss of Emily Rapp’s son Ronan, who suffered from Tay-Sachs Disease. Rapp wrote about her son’s story in her book The Still Point of the Turning World. (Little Seal)
