Thank you for taking the time to put this together - such a time saving way to find relevant articles to what we’re personally experiencing at the moment - so much easier than searching all of Substack!

I’m grateful to be included in this first issue, and hope that my homework article helps parents navigate homework drama a little bit easier.

Thank you again on many levels, Erin!

It makes it so much easier to find relevant writing instead of relying on the algorithm to maybe send something my way. You’re doing an amazing job with this. Thank you for all the effort you put in.
