I wonder if she was aware of the judgment-y edge to the past experiences of mothers in the room when talking about these things. I mean, she's got a point-- those relationship-building moments ARE important (I won't lie, I bristled at "it's not zero to THREE that's important!", lol-- MY LIFE IS FLASHING BEFORE MY EYES, MY CAREER IS A SHAM!!!)-- but there's a gentle art to talking about these things without parents feeling like they've done irreversible damage to their other children. It's a fine line and a real skill. <333
